Paediatric gastroenterology

Gastroenterological problems are the most common problems in paediatrics (with the possible exception of respiratory disease). Diarrhoea and fluid management are the bread and butter of paediatrics - it is essentially about differentiating between seriously ill and mildly ill children. Abdominal pain can often be indiciative of serious or life-threatening pathology and again detection of the seriously sick child is essential.
