Resumen

DIAZ LORENZO, Tamara et al. Nutritional evaluation of the child with functional diarrhea. Rev Cubana Pediatr [online]. 2007, vol.79, n.4. ISSN 0034-7531.

Functional diarrhea appears frequently in the pediatric practice and it is not generally associated with nutritional disorders, but with inappropriate diet schemes. In order to determine the nutritional evaluation of the children with this type of affection, and the influence of the diet on the appearance of the disease, a cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted among 44 children under 36 months old that received attention at the gastroenterology office of “Pedro Borras Astorga” University Pediatric Hospital between 2003 and 2005. According to the criteria of Rome II, they were diagnosed functional diarrhea. No significant nutritional affection was observed. The dietetic evaluation showed an unhealthy nutrition that contributed to the genesis of the diarrea.

Palabras clave : Functional diarrhea; Rome II criteria; nutritional evaluation.
