ACUTE INTESTINAL INFECTIONS OF VIRAL ETIOLOGY IN CHILDREN: PROSPECTS FOR DIAGNOSIS AND THERAPY

https://doi.org/10.21518/2079-701X-2017-9-86-92

Abstract

Acute intestinal infections of viral etiology are among the most common groups of infectious diseases in childhood. The wide prevalence, instable immunity, high incidence of mixed infections result in a sustainably high incidence rate; this, in combination with a significant proportion of moderate to severe forms, is a heavy burden for the national health care. The article provides key data on the etiology, pathogenesis, clinical pattern and treatment of the group of diseases
