Abstract

Hospital-acquired diarrhea, which affects roughly 2-32% of patients hospitalized to pediatric wards, is a serious risk, particularly for young patients. In underdeveloped nations, diarrhea affects children under the age of three on average three times per year. Diarrhea adds to the lack of important nourishment, which is essential for a child's growth, on each and every episode. The primary goal is to investigate the causes and prevalence of pediatric hospital acquired diarrhea.
