Demographic variables, access to drinking water, area of residence, eating habits and hygiene practices were evaluated. Statistical tests, such as Pearson's Chi-Square, were used to analyze the relationship between these variables.Conclusions: A high prevalence of bacterial diarrhea was identified in the sample, highlighting the importance of access to drinking water in the prevention of these diseases.
