Abstract

Acute infectious diarrhea is a major global health problem. Issues for the developed and developing regions of the world differ. Awareness of disease pathophysiology and epidemiology are essential, however, for clinical evaluation and management. The immense human and economic burden imposed by acute diarrhea illness can be addressed only by thoughtful strategies aimed at prevention as well as cost-efficient evaluation and treatment.
