The 56.4% consumes drinking water, the 71.65% lives in overcrowding, a 42% has latrine service and 49.2% has sewerage service. A significant association with the level of education OR 1.68, 95% CI (1 - 2.84), p = 0.049; latrines OR 1.99, 95% CI (1.17 - 3.36), p = 0.01; outdoor feces OR 4.32, 95% CI (2.13 - 8.77), p = 0.000 was found.

The test used for the detection of Helicobacter pylori is the detection of antigens in the stool by immunochromatography. For the determination of the association we used the OR with its 95% confidence interval. It was considered statistically significant p-values < .05. Results: The average age was 8.8 years (SD 2.0), with a predominance of women 54.4%. The 56.4 % consume potable drinking water, the 71.65 % living in overcrowded, the 42.0 % have sanitation services and the 49.2 % has sewerage services. Statistically significant association was found with the level of instruction OR 1.68, 95% CI: 1.00 - 2.84, p=0,049; latrine OR 1.99 , 95% CI: 1.17 - 3.36 , p=0.010 ; outdoor stools OR 4.32 , 95% CI: 2.13 - 8.77 , p=0.000 ; Conclusions: The prevalence of Helicobacter pylori infection is high in the school population in the Shuar ethnic group and is linked to the level of parental education, latrines and stools in the open air.
