ABSTRACT

A descriptive, prospective and cross-sectional study of 72 patients younger than 18 months of age with acute diarrheal disease caused by type A rotavirus who were admitted in the Gastroenterology Service of "Dr. Antonio María Béguez Caesar" Southern Teaching Pediatric Hospital in Santiago de Cuba was carried out, during the period of March, 2012 to December, 2013, with the aim characterizing them according to some clinical, epidemic and therapeutic variables. In the statistical analysis the percentage calculation and the Chi square test were applied (with a significance level similar to 0,05), that revealed a prevalence of the age group 12-18 months, of the lifestyles middle and poor, as well as of the rural origin and artificial nursing. Also the symptomatic pattern of diarrhea, vomit and fever, and the complication of transitory deficiency of the enzyme lactase were most frequent.
