Gastroenteritis

Gastroenteritis er en betændelsestilstand (-"itis") i mave (-"gastro") og tarm (-"entero")-kanalen som fører til en kombination af diarre, opkast, bughulesmerter og kramper.^[1]

Globalt er de fleste gastroenteritter blandt børn forårsaget af rotavirus;^[2] i voksne norovirus^[3] og Campylobacter.^[4] Mere sjældne årsager skyldes andre bakterier (og deres toksiner). Smitte sker ofte som følge af indtag af dårligt tilberedt mad eller kontamineret vand eller via tæt kontakt med inficerede individer.
