Bacteria That Cause Gastroenteritis Signs symptoms Pathogenesis Clinical Features Staphylococcus aureus Nausea and Enterotoxin acts Very common, abrupt onset, intense vomiting on receptors for up to 24 hours, regular recovery in 24-48 in the gut that hours. Occurs in persons eating the same food transmit impulse No treatment usually necessary except to to medullary restore fluids and electrolytes ters that control Bacillus cereus Vomiting or Enterotoxin formed in Witn incubation period of 2-8 hours, mainly diarrhea food or in gut from vomiting With incubation period of 8-16 growth of B cereus. hours, mainly diarrhea Clostridium perfringens Watery Enterotoxin produced Abrupt onset of profuse diarrhea: vomiting during sporulation occasionally Recovery usual without treatment in gut, causes in 1-4 days. Many clostridia in cultures of faod d feces of patients Clostridium botulinum Paralysis Toxin absorbed Diplopia, dysphagia, dysphonia, difficulty from gut blocks eathing Treatment requires ventilatory acetylcholine at support and antitoxin Diagnosis confirmed by neuromuscular finding toxin in blood or stool Junction DIAGNOSTICS 1)Staphylococcus aureus Gram stain-(+), in clusters; Culture- beta-hemolytic, golden yellow pigment 2)Bacillus cereus Culture specimen from suspected food source 3)Clostridium perfringens: Culture( anaerobic ) Gram stain-(+) 4)Clostridium botulinum Culture(anaerobic ) Gram stain -(+)

In adults ETEC (HL)or heat-stable usually self-limiting in 1-3 days (HSJenterotoxins Toxins cause hypersecretion in small intestine Escherichia coli Dysentery Inflammatory invasion Acute bloody diarrhea with malaise, headache, enteroinvasive of the colonic high fever, and abdominal pain.

Other serotypes may be detected by toxin production using enzyme mmunoassays that contain antibodies to the Shiga-like toxins

Viruses that Cause gastroenteritis signs and Organism Symptoms Pal athogenesis Clinical Features Rotavirus Watery Induces histopathologic Fever and vomiting usually precede abdominal diarrhea changes in intestinal distress and diarrhea, Death in infants in vomiting mucosal cells develaping countries follows dehydration. mild fever and electrolyte imbalance. Typical course is 3-9 days. Diagnosis by immunoassay detection of rotavirus antigen in stool Norovirus Watery Induces histopathologic Abrupt onset of abdominal pain followed by diarrhea change in intestinal nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. Low-grade vomiting mucosa such as fever may occur: malaise, myalgias, and blunting of microvilli eadache are described. Typical course is 2-3 days. Diagnosis requires RT-PCR or other assays not readily available Diagnosis Rotavirus: Enzyme immunoassay( ElAs)and PCr from stool Norovirus: rt-PCr from stool
