Overview

The risk factors of Acute diarrhea can be assessed based on the epidemiologic associations and the patient exposure histories. Some of theses factors can be classified based on travel history, epidemics and outbreaks, Food history, Animal contact, Hospitalization and immunosupression.

Risk factors

Most common risk factors for Acute diarrhea include:[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9]

  • Epidemics and Outbreaks:
    • Bacterial: Shigella, Vibrio cholerae
    • Virus: Noro virus, Rotavirus
    • Protozoan: Cryptosporidium
  • Animal contact: Non typhoidal Salmonella, Campylobacter
  • Day care: Common organisms include Noro virus, Rota virus, Calci virus, Campylobacter, Shigella, Cryptosporidium.
  • Poor sanitation and crowding
  • Water exposure: Swimming pools and Marine environment (Shigella, Aeromonas, Giardia, Cryptosporidium)
  • Food history: Consumption of raw or undercooked food is a common risk factor in the development of acute diarrhea.
    • Raw eggs: Salmonella
    • Diary food: Campylobacter, Salmonella
    • Ground beef: EHEC
    • Poultry: Campylobacter
    • Oysters: Calci virus, Vibrio
  • Antibiotic use and hospitalization:
    • Clostridium difficle, Rota virus.
  • Drug side effects: Broad spectrum antibiotics, Anti fungals, Immunosuppressants)
