Clinics in Gastroenterology, 1986
Gastroenterologists often have to deal with patients with chronic diarrhoea. The vast majority will suffer from functional bowel syndrome. A few will present with a clear-cut organic disease. If chronic diarrhoea remains unexplained after extensive testing, if daily stool volume is high (greater than 500 g/24 h) and if the patient is female, factitious

Clinics in Gastroenterology, 1986
Proctocolectomy renders patients more prone to significant fluid and electrolyte disturbance due not only to the loss of the normal absorptive capacity of the colon, but also due to unique complications of the postoperative state. Other than causes of diarrhoea unrelated to ileostomy, ileal resection, partial small bowel obstruction, and regional ...

International Journal of Colorectal Disease, 1986
Functional diarrhoea remains an elusive and a difficult condition to diagnose and treat; however, with careful history-taking a logical approach to management can be made. Each patient must be considered individually and sub-classification should be attempted. It is very important to rule out organic disease.

Risk of travellers' diarrhoea is about 7% in developed countries and 20-50% in the developing world. Options for prevention include education and chemoprophylaxis. Vaccination is a promising but incomplete option. Achieving behaviour modification of food and water choices among tourists is difficult. Bismuth subsalicylate (BSS)-containing compounds are

Tropical diarrhoea: new developments in travellerʼs diarrhoea
Current Opinion in Infectious Diseases, 2001Traveller's diarrhoea is the most common illness acquired by visitors to developing countries, affecting 20-50% of the 35 million people who travel from industrialized countries each year. Important risk factors include point of origin and destination of the traveller, host factors, and exposure to contaminated food and water. The most common causes of

Abstract The approach to evaluating patients presenting with diarrhoea is set out using an example case with questions for the reader as the case evolves. This includes salient points in history taking, physical examination, relevant investigations, and a brief discussion of management. Shorter clinical vignettes follow, illustrating how
