Abstract
- The infective diarrhoea show a high morbility in infants of all countries and a high mortality in infants and children of developing countries. In developed countries there is a high frequency of "traveler's diarrhoea". The different pathogenesis of infectious diarrhoeas (intestinal invasion, intestinal adherence, citonecrotic or citotonic toxins) influences the clinical presentation (watery diarrhoea or diarrhoea with blood and mucos, presence or assence of fever). The key factor in the management of acute watery diarrhoea is the restoration of water and electrolyte balance; but frequently an antimicrobial treatment is needed.
