RESUMEN: Helicobacter pylori es una bacteria Gram negativa con forma bacilo helicoidal que habita en el epitelio gástrico humano a pesar de que este posee un pH demasiado ácido para permitir el desarrollo bacteriano normal, esta bacteria es capaz de generar el desarrollo de patologías gástricas, como gastritis, enfermedad ulcerativa o incluso cáncer gástrico si esta no es tratada a tiempo, lo que hace necesario realizar pruebas para detectar a dicha bacteria, por esto el objetivo de la investigación fue determinar la positividad coproantigénica de Helicobacter pylori en estudiantes y docentes del Instituto Nacional El Carmen, municipio El Carmen, departamento de La Unión. Metodología: La investigación realizada fue de tipo prospectiva, transversal, descriptiva y de laboratorio, la recopilación de la información se llevó a cabo a través de una cédula de entrevista dirigida a los estudiantes y docentes del Instituto Nacional El Carmen, la población estuvo conformada por el sector estudiantil y la planta docente de la antes mencionada institución educativa.
ABSTRACT: The Helicobacter pylori bacterium is considered responsible for the development of digestive tract diseases such as chronic gastritis, peptic ulcer and gastric adenocarcinoma; This bacterium constantly evolves in humans and is transmitted from person to person through acquisition routes such as Oral-Oral, Fecal-Oral, Gastro-Oral and by vulnerable factors such as overcrowding, raw or undercooked food, intake of coffee, alcohol and tobacco consumption as these help bacterial proliferation. This infection is more frequent in older adults due to the weakening of the stomach membrane due to age and the alteration of the defense mechanism. The objective of the present investigation was to determine Helicobacter pylori Antigens, in the population that resides in the San Antonio Asylum, in the Department of San Miguel. The methodology used was prospective, cross-sectional, descriptive and laboratory. Results: The population that resides in the San Antonio Asylum of the Department of San Miguel, was positive to the rapid test of Helicobacter pylori Antigens in feces with 39.10%, where the people who work in said institution presented positive results with 55.60%, while 44.40% of infection corresponds to older adults, the most affected age ranges were 68-83 years with 38.90% and 19-34 years with 33.30%, in addition, the most affected sex was the most affected sex was the female with 72.20%.
