Резюме:Introduction: Blastocystis hominis, protozoan commensal, currently suggests the pathogenic power of this protozoan and its association with intestinal and extraintestinal disorders, is considered an emerging parasite. Objective: To determine the relationship between socioeconomic, environmental and psycho-social risk factors with Blastocystis hominis infection in school children attending the Educational Unit January 20, San José, Babahoyo, Los Ríos in the period since October 2018 to April 2019. Methodology: Basic research, qualitative-quantitative, field, descriptive, transversal. Techniques used, unstructured and direct scientific observation, survey and registration of coproparasitological exams. The instrument was an unstructured record card for the observation and collection of coproparasitological samples and a questionnaire. The population was 192 schoolchildren, between five and thirteen years old and sample 65. Results: Primary education level and low monthly salary prevailed, mothers lacked knowledge about intestinal parasites and blastocistosis. There were families that eliminated excreta in the open air, consumed the water without boiling and in many homes there were domestic animals. Many children did not wash their hands after contact with pets or before consuming food or after defecation. 69.2% of the children had presented previous parasitosis, while in the research 89.2% were parasitized, predominantly Blastocystis hominis (80.9%). Conclusions: The most prevalent intestinal protozoa were Blastocystis hominis and Giardia lamblia and in the case of helminths, Enterobius vermicularis, Ascaris lumbricoides. Symptoms predominated: abdominal pain and diarrea.
