Coming soonRotavirus vaccination refers to active immunization indicated for the prevention of acute rotavirus gastroenteritis primarily in infants and young children.
Rotavirus predominantly targets the gastrointestinal tract, infecting enterocytes of the small intestinal villi and causing villous blunting and osmotic malabsorption.
Clinically, infection manifests as an acute illness characterized by severe watery diarrhea, frequent vomiting, fever, and abdominal pain, typically lasting three to eight days.
Without prompt intervention, this pathophysiologic fluid loss frequently leads to rapid dehydration, electrolyte abnormalities, metabolic acidosis, and potential hypovolemic shock in vulnerable pediatric populations.
