| Popis: | In recent years, viral lesions of the gastrointestinal tract take the leading place in the etiological structure of acute intestinal infections. The study of the clinical course and treatment of viral diarrhea in children is an urgent task in modern conditions. We analyzed the disease of 2568 children aged 1 month to 17 years who were hospitalized in a Hospital No 3 in St. Petersburg in the period of 2016-2017. All patients underwent a standard laboratory examination. The etiological interpretation was carried out with the help of polymerase chain reaction, bacteriological and serological methods of investigation. Of the 2568 children in 1502 (58.5%) patients, the diagnosis was confirmed. The share of bacterial diarrhea was 31.8%, viral lesions of the gastrointestinal tract – 68.2%. Among the decoded viral lesions of the gastrointestinal tract, the share of rotavirus infection was 52.8%, norovirus infection – 24.8%, mixed infection – 19.6%. A high proportion of viral lesions of the gastrointestinal tract was established in children under 3 years of age (71.7%). The main reason for hospitalization of children under 5 years of age is rotavirus infection, from 5 to 12 years – norovirus infection. Almost always (87.6%), viral diarrhea proceeded in a moderate form. In infants, mixed viral infection was recorded in severe form. The use of Viferon® in the form of rectal suppositories to supplement the basic therapy of viral intestinal infections significantly reduces the duration of intoxication syndrome, fever, diarrhea, catarrhal syndrome, the duration elimination of viruses, and the length of stay in the hospital. |
