Popis: | We present the results of a 187 cases acute diarrhea study managed in the Short Stay Unit of Clinic Universitary Hospital of Zaragoza during 1987-1988. To that aim, we designed an actuation protocol which included the gathering of several data, the realization of complementary studies and the evolutive pursuit. The coproculture resulted positive in a 54.5% of cases and Salmonella was the microorganism more frequently isolated. Most of the species were sensible to common antibiotics and all of them sensible to norfloxacin. Nearly a third part of patients developed some kind of complication. Therefore we infer that acute diarrhea may be subsidiary of diagnosis and treatment in Short Stay Units. |
