title: [Possibilities for preventing the epidemic spread of rotavirus infections on neonatal wards].
abstract: Rota viruses are the most frequent cause of acute gastroenteritis of infants and toddlers. Small epidemies occur enlarged in institutions for newborns and toddlers. The infection occurs normally via faeces. An aerogenes infection is in discussion. In case of a suspected Rota-Virus-Infection in an infant- or toddler care unit the patients have to be isolated immediately or quarantined. Further essential precautions preventing the spreading are mentioned. With this regime we could only see individual Rota-Virus-Infections in infant care units.
