Intestinal parasitic infections are a major public health problem worldwide, affecting mainly children, causing malnutrition, anaemia and growth deficits; it is therefore important to know the prevalence in order to establish strategies to mitigate the effects; so the aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of intestinal parasitism and its relationship with haemoglobin levels in children under 12 years of age treated at the Walter Cruz Vilca Moche Hospital (La Libertad - Peru), January 2022 - December 2023. The type of research was descriptive correlational, with a cross-sectional observational design; the sample consisted of 326 children under 12 years of age who met the exclusion and inclusion criteria; the information was obtained from the archives of results records from the clinical laboratory area, which were processed in a database and analysed with the SPSS VS-25 statistical package. Of the 326 children under 12 years of age seen at the Hospital, a prevalence of 40.5% of parasitism was determined, with children aged 3 to 4 years having the highest percentage (31.8%); the most frequent parasite was Blastocystis hominis (72%); of the parasitized children under 6 years of age, 32.93% had low haemoglobin values and 52% in parasitized children aged 7 to 12 years. 93% presented low haemoglobin values and 52% in parasitised children aged 7 to 12 years. No relationship was found between the prevalence of intestinal parasitism and haemoglobin levels in children under 6 years, but it does exist in children aged 7 to 12 years (rho= 0.700) with a significance level <0.05.
