Overview

  • The causes of acute diarrhoea are based on geographical location, food hygiene standards, sanitation, water supply, and season.
  • Common causes of acute diarrhea in children in both developing and developed nations are infections. Infectious gastroenterits is most commonly caused by Rota virus, Shigella, Enterotoxigenic E.coli ETEC , Campylobacter, Cryptosporidium parvum. Less commonly, acute diarrhea in children can be caused by Norwalk like viruses, can be associated with systemic infections including Influenza, UTI, Otitis media, HIV infection.
