PATHOPHYSIOLOGY
Acute gastroenteritis is a medical condition that involves inflammation and irritation of the digestive system,
particularly the stomach, and intestines. It is typically caused by a viral, bacterial, or parasitic infection and
is often characterized by symptoms such as diarrhea, vomiting, nausea, stomach pain, and fever.

The most common causes of acute gastroenteritis include rotavirus, norovirus, and bacterial infections such
as E. coli and Salmonella. The condition can be spread through contaminated food or water, close contact
with infected individuals, or poor hygiene practices.

Acute gastroenteritis usually resolves on its own within a few days to a week, but treatment may include
rehydration with fluids and electrolytes, medication to control diarrhea or nausea, and in some cases,
antibiotics to fight bacterial infections. It is important to seek medical attention if symptoms are severe if
there are signs of dehydration, or if there is blood in the stool.
