Treatment
Traditional treatment:
Feed infants a formula thickened with rice cereal while
holding them in an upright position
Then keeping them upright in an infant chair for 1 hour
after feeding so gravity can help prevent reflux.

Pathophysiology
The 2 primary mechanisms responsible for acute gastroenteritis are:
damage to the villous brush border of the intestine, causing
malabsorption of intestinal contents and leading to an osmotic
diarrhea, and

Malnutrition:
Children who die from diarrhoea often suffer from
underlying malnutrition, which makes them more
vulnerable to diarrhoea.
Each diarrhoeal episode, in turn, makes their malnutrition
even worse. Diarrhoea is a leading cause of malnutrition in
children under five years old.

Etiology

Incidence
contd
53
Every year there are about two billion cases of diarrhoeal disease
worldwide.
Diarrhoeal disease is a leading cause of child mortality and morbidity
in the world, and mostly results from contaminated food and water
sources.
Diarrhoea due to infection is widespread throughout developing
countries.
