Abstract

Background: ROTAVIRUS is one of the most common cause of diarrhea and one of the major causes of sever GASTROENTERITIS in very young children. Objective: To follow up and genotype the agents of ROTAVIRUS infection as well as assessing the BACTERIAl and parasitic organisms among hospitalized children with GASTROENTERITIS in the city of Jahrom, Iran. Methods: This was a cross-sectional descriptive study carried out during October 2006 to October 2007. A total of 163 stool samples from hospitalized children less than 5 years old with severe diarrhea were collected from two hospitals in Jahrom. Culture, microscopy, EIA, and RT-PCR were used for detection of BACTERIAl, parasitic and rotaviral agents. Data were analyzed using SPSS 14 and descriptive statistics including chi-square test, ANOVA, and Fisher exact test. A p value less than 0.05 was considered to be statistically significant. Finding: Of total samples, 46.02% were positive for group A ROTAVIRUS by EIA. The predominant genotypes were G1 (17.33%), G4 (30.66%), and nontypable (30.66%). Also, E. coli, Shigella spp. , Shigella spp. + E. coli, E. coli + ROTAVIRUS, Salmonella spp. , E. histolytica/E.Dispar, and other infectious agents were identified in 7.97%, 17.18%, 1.83%, 15.20%, 3.66%, 10.84%, and 6.28% of cases, respectively. Conclusion: According to the data obtained from the present study, ROTAVIRUS infections in Jahrom mostly occur within the cold months of the year, epidemiologically.
