- W1989805212 abstract "Background: To effectively introduce a rotavirus vaccine in developing countries, it is necessary to estimate the burden of rotavirus disease. Therefore we examined the epidemiologic and clinical features of rotavirus diarrhea in children younger than 5 years of age in Carabobo State and extrapolated these results to the rest of Venezuela. Methods: From January 1, 1998 to December 31, 2002, we conducted surveillance for rotavirus diarrhea in all children younger than 5 years of age at the Ciudad Hospitalaria “Dr Enrique Tejera,” in Valencia (Carabobo). Results: Rotavirus is the major cause of diarrhea in children younger than 5 years of age in Venezuela, accounting for one-fourth (23%) of all episodes of diarrhea requiring medical treatment and one-third (33%) of those requiring hospitalization. Rotavirus diarrhea was responsible for 3% of all hospitalizations and 2% of all medical visits. In Valencia, rotavirus had a marked seasonal peak during the dry and cold months of the year. Rotavirus was most frequent in children 3–23 months of age, and 61% of the cases occurred by the age of 1 year. In addition, rotavirus diarrhea was more severe in younger children. Overall, by the age of 5 years, 1 child in 72 will be hospitalized and 1 in 24 will visit the clinic for rotavirus disease. In Venezuela, we estimated that each year, 118,000 children experience rotavirus illness requiring medical care and 39,000 children require hospitalization. Conclusions: This study confirms the significant impact of rotavirus disease in Venezuela. Rotavirus vaccines currently in development could diminish the morbidity associated with this common cause of childhood diarrheal disease." @default.
