DIARRHEA
Background
Diarrhea is
worlds
Disease Burden
Worldwide
3-5 billion episodes/year
4-5 million deaths/year
Children are the predominant populations.
3.2 billion episodes/year in <5y children
1.3 million deaths/year in <5y children
In China
836 million episodes of diarrhea every year
1/4-1/3 of all outdoor patients and a large amount
of hospitalizations of children are due to diarrhea

Definition
In pediatrics, diarrhea is
defined as an increase in the
F luidity
Volume
of stools
Number
relative to the usual habits of
each individual

Sudden change of formula
Inappropriate feeding for a milk-fed
baby shifting into solid food
(too much, too early, too rapid)

Allergic Diarrhea
Primary food hypersensitivity: 3 months after birth

Infection injury and hyperpermeability of intestinal
mucosa large molecular protein entering

Dietary Diarrhea
25
Rotavirus
Virus invades the absorptive enterocytes of villi but spares crypt cells
The viruses replicates and infected enterocytes are destroyed
26
Osmotic Diarrhea
1- Infected absorptive
enterocytes are killed
causing patchy epithelial cell
destruction and villous
shortening
2- Destroyed absorptive cells
are rapidly replaced by cells
that migrate from the crypts.
Villi become covered with
immature non-absorptive
secretory cells having:
- no brush border
- no brush border enzymes

Pathogenesis of Enterotoxigenic
Diarrhea (Secretory Diarrhea)
An imbalance in the ratio of intestinal fluid absorption to

Classification of Diarrhea

2. Moderate diarrhea:
3. Severe diarrhea:
Classification of Diarrhea
Acute stage: the course of the
diseases less than 2 weeks
Persisting type: the course of
disease more than 2 weeks but
less than 2 months
Chronic stage: the
course of disease more than 2
months

Rotaviruses Infection

Rotaviruses infection
History:
First recognized in humans in 1973 by
Australian Scientist Bishop, with a hubbed
wheel appearance under electronmicroscope,
giving their name
Virology:
Double-stranded RNA virus
VP6: A-G group, group A is the most important
group in childhood infection
65
Rotaviruses infection
Peak season:
Peak age:
6m-2y, rarely happen in children above 4y
Disease burden:
80% infectious diarrhea in pediatric clinic in autumn and
winter
About 1/4 to 1/3 (more than 800 cases) hospitalized diarrhea
children are caused by rotavirus in our ward every year

Treatment of metabolic
acidosis
For full correction of acidosis, NaHCO3 required
(mmol)= Base deficit x body weight x 0.3
In most cases, metabolic acidosis is self-corrected
once dehydration corrected and hence effective
circulation volume restored
In rare situation, half of the calculated required
NaHCO3 may be given: watch out for Na overload and
pulmonary oedema
87
Potassium Replacement
100-300mg/kg.d
divided into 4 times a day
Concentration: 0.15-0.3%
Replacement should be maintained for
4-6days

Case history
A 2-year-old gril presents with a history of passing
10-15 water stools and has vomited at least four
times in the last 24 hours. She appears
distressed but otherwise cooperative and drinks
thirstily from a glass of fruit juice but then vomits.
The nurse informs you that her pulse is 96
beats/minute, temperature 37.9 and blood
pressure 100/60mmHg.
Please discuss the management of this child.
