What disease can acute gastroenteritis cause seriously


Building a healthier future together.
Acute gastroenteritis may lead to dehydration, gastrointestinal bleeding, hypovolemic shock and other diseases.
1. Dehydration
Acute gastroenteritis has certain self-limiting, but if some serious patients are not treated in time, they will lose a lot of water and electrolytes due to frequent vomiting, resulting in dehydration.
2. Patients with gastrointestinal bleeding will continue to be
stimulated by inflammation of local gastrointestinal mucosa, resulting in local mucosal ulcer and erosion, and gastrointestinal bleeding due to capillary rupture.
3. Hypovolemic shock
Some patients due to a large loss of water and electrolytes, resulting in reduced peripheral blood volume, resulting in insufficient blood perfusion of various tissues and organs, resulting in hypovolemic shock.
