[The diagnosis of campylobacteriosis].
Results of assays for Campylobacter in patients with intestinal dysfunction are presented for the period from 1984 to 1991. 4147 cases were analyzed in 144 of which (3%) Campylobacter was detected in feces. Children constituted 12% of this group. They were distributed by age in the following way: 1 year and younger--1%, from 1 to 2 years--4.2%, from 3 to 6 years--3.8%, from 7 to 16 years--2.3%. 15 Campylobacter-positive patients were established to discharge other enteropathogenic microorganisms. 4% of children suffered from severe form of campylobacteriosis associated with exsicosis, 80% had moderate form of the disease. In order to study reservoirs of the infection 102 samples of intestinal content in livestock were analyzed for Campylobacter 57.1% of which proved to be positive.
