(Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2023-06-22) Nizama Diaz, Dayan Caroline; Lujan Torrealva, Franco Silvio
General Objective: To determine the nutritional status of children under 5 years old attending the “MAGDALENA” Maternal and Child Health Center and its association with the level of knowledge about child nutrition among their mothers or caregivers. Materials and Method: The study will be descriptive, with a quantitative approach, cross-sectional, and non-experimental. A questionnaire with 10 questions and a single response option on child nutrition will be used to assess the knowledge of mothers or caregivers. The knowledge level will be classified as high (15-11 pts.), medium (10-6 pts.), or low (5-0 pts.). Results: The Spearman's rank test was used to measure the relationship between the two quantitative variables. The association degree between the two variables was calculated on each scale (-1 and 1). A statistical hypothesis was tested with a p-value of 0.9815 at a 5% significance level, allowing us to conclude that there is insufficient statistical evidence to reject the null hypothesis. Conclusion: With a p-value of 0.9815 at a 5% significance level, we conclude that there is no significant relationship between the knowledge level about nutrition and the nutritional status of the child.

Materials and Methods: This was a quantitative, descriptive, cross-sectional study. A convenience sample of 57 parasitized children from the human settlement was obtained. Two techniques were used: one was an interview, and the instrument was a questionnaire, which was validated by expert judges; the other technique was documentary analysis, and the instrument was a form structured based on the Health Post Registration Book of the jurisdiction. The collected data were entered into the database; to establish the relationship between parasite types and habits, the Chi-square test was used. Results: Almost all (92%) had unhealthy habits; more than half (54%) of the children were parasitized with pinworms, and the rest with Giardia lamblia. There was a relationship between water consumption habits and types of parasites (p< 0.05). Conclusions: A significant relationship was found between water consumption and storage habits and intestinal parasitosis in children under 5 years old; furthermore, most households had access to irrigation water (74%), and just over half of the respondents stored water for later consumption, without observing hygienic measures or subjecting it to any purification process (54%).
