抄録 | Background: This study was conducted to determine the etiology of diarrhoea in a hospital setting in Kolkata. Active
surveillance was conducted for 2 years on two random days per week by enrolling every fifth diarrhoeal patient
admitted to the Infectious Diseases and Beliaghata General Hospital in Kolkata.
Results: Most of the patients (76.1%) had acute watery diarrhoea in association with vomiting (77.7%) and some
dehydration (92%). Vibrio cholerae O1, Rotavirus and Giardia lamblia were the important causes of diarrhoea. Among
Shigella spp, S. flexneri 2a and 3a serotypes were most predominantly isolated. Enteric viruses, EPEC and EAEC were
common in children <5 year age group. Atypical EPEC was comparatively higher than the typical EPEC. Multidrug
resistance was common among V. cholerae O1 and Shigella spp including tetracycline and ciprofloxacin. Polymicrobial
infections were common in all age groups and 27.9% of the diarrhoea patients had no potential pathogen.
Conclusions: Increase in V. cholerae O1 infection among <2 years age group, resistance of V. cholerae O1 to tetracycline,
rise of untypable S. flexnerii, higher proportion of atypical EPEC and G. lamblia and polymicrobial etiology are some of
the emerging trends observed in this diarrhoeal disease surveillance.
