title: [Infectious diarrhea in routine pediatric practice].
abstract: Diarrhea, caused by infectious agents in childhood leads to dangerous loss of fluid and electrolytes. So the main issues in diagnosis and therapy are the evaluation of dehydration and the rapid compensation of deficits. The oral rehydration is superior to the parenteral as long as the clinical course allows. A infectious agent specific diagnosis and therapy is necessary only in well defined instances.
