I. INTRODUCTION
Acute Gastroenteritis (AGE)Gastroenteritis is a catchall term for infection or irritation of the digestive tract, particularly thestomach and
intestine. It is frequently referred to as the stomach or intestinal flu, although theinfluenzavirus is not associated with this illness. Major symptoms
includenausea andvomiting,diarrhea, and abdominal cramps. These symptoms are sometimes also accompanied byfever and overall weakness.
Gastroenteritis typically lasts about three days. Adults usuallyrecover without problem, but children, the elderly, and anyone with an underlying
disease aremore vulnerable to complications such asdehydration.Gastroenteritis arises from ingestion of viruses, certain bacteria, or parasites. Food
that hasspoiled may also cause illness. Certain medications and excessive alcohol can irritate thedigestive tract to the point of inducing
gastroenteritis. Regardless of the cause, the symptomsof gastroenteritis include diarrhea, nausea and vomiting, and abdominalpainand
cramps.Sufferers may also experience bloating, low fever, and overall tiredness. Typically, thesymptoms last only two to three days, but some viruses
may last up to a week.A usual bout of gastroenteritis shouldn't require a visit to the doctor. However, medicaltreatment is essential if symptoms
worsen or if there are complications. Infants, youngchildren, the elderly, and persons with underlying disease require special attention in
thisregard.The greatest danger presented by gastroenteritis is dehydration. The loss of f luids throughdiarrhea and vomiting can upset the body's
electrolyte balance, leading to potentially life-threatening problems such as heart beat abnormalities (arrhythmia). The risk of dehydrationincreases
as symptoms are prolonged. Dehydration should be suspected if adry mouth,increased or excessive thirst, or scanty urination is experienced.If
symptoms do not resolve within a week, an infection or disorder more serious thangastroenteritis may be involved. Symptoms of great concern
include a high fever (102 F[38.9 C] or above), blood or mucus in the diarrhea, blood in the vomit, and severe abdominal pain or swelling. These
symptoms require prompt medical attention.Gastroenteritis is a self-limiting illness which will resolve by itself. However, for comfort andconvenience,
a person may use over-the-counter medications such as Pepto Bismol to relievethe symptoms. These medications work by altering the ability of the
intestine to move or secrete spontaneously, absorbing toxins and water, or altering intestinal microflora.
III. SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY
Nursing Education:
The significance of this study to nursing education is to further increase and expound knowledge of the students. It also helps to make a
reliable and holistic care plans to improve the quality of life of the client. The study hastens the opportunity for the students to apply theoretical
knowledge to actual health care settings.
Nursing Practice:
This study is significant to nursing practice to further improve the skills and ability of the nursing students and enhances students capability to
make intelligent actions and decisions in the clinical area. This study also helps us to attain our goal which is to provide quality care to our client to
improve their quality of life.
Nursing Research:
Through having this study, nursing students would be able to apply their skills in research. Be able to apply systematic and scientific way of
solving problems and discover new ideas that would give answers to the patients situation. It also a means of revision the k ind of therapy we have
and a means of discovering a new technique or methods in dealing and caring of client with this kind of condition.

VI. ANATOMY AND PHYSIOLOGY
Digestion is the process by which food is broken down into smaller pieces so that the bodycan use them to build and nourish cells and to provide
energy. Digestion involves themixing of food, its movement through the digestive tract (also known as thealimentarycanal), and the chemical
breakdown of larger molecules into smaller molecules. Every piece of food we eat has to be broken down into smaller nutrients that the bodycanabsorb,which is why it takes hours to fully digest food.The digestive system is made up of the digestive tract. This consists of a long tube
of organs that runs from themouthto theanusand includes the esophagus, stomach, smallintestine,and large intestine, together with theliver ,
gallbladder ,andpancreas,which produce important secretions for digestion thatdraininto the small intestine. The digestivetract in an adult is about
30 feet long.Mouth and Salivary GlandsDigestion - begins in the mouth, where chemical andmechanical digestion occurs. Saliva or spit, produced by
the salivary glands (located under thetongueand near the lowerjaw), is released into the mouth. Saliva Saliva begins to break down the food,
moistening it and making it easier to swallow. A digestiveenzyme(calledamylase)in the saliva begins to break down thecarbohydrates(starches and
sugars). One of the most important functions of the mouth is chewing. Chewing allows food to bemashed into a soft mass that is easier to swallow
and digest later.Esophagus - Once food is swallowed, it enters the esophagus, amusculartube that is about10 inches long. The esophagus is
located between the throat and the stomach. Muscular wavelike contractions known asperistalsispush the food down through the esophagus tothe
stomach. A muscular ring (called thecardiacsphincter) at the end of the esophagusallows food to enter the stomach, and, then, it squeezes shut to
prevent food and fluid fromgoing back up the esophagus.Stomach - a J-shapedorganthat lies between the esophagus and the small intestine in
theupperabdomen.The stomach has 3 main functions: to store the swallowed food and liquid to mix up the food, liquid, and digestive juices
produced by the stomach; and to slowlyempty its contents into the small intestine.Small Intestine - Most digestion andabsorptionof food occurs in the
small intestine. Thesmall intestine is a narrow, twisting tube that occupies most of the lower abdomen betweenthe stomach and the beginning of the
large intestine. It extends about 20 feet in length. Thesmall intestine consists of 3 parts: the duodenum (the C-shaped part), thejejunum(thecoiledmidsection), and theileum

(the last section). The small intestine has 2 importantfunctions. First, the digestive process is completed here by enzymes and other substancesmade
by intestinal cells, the pancreas, and the liver. Glands in the intestine walls secreteenzymes that breakdown starches and sugars. The pancreas
secretes enzymes into the smallintestine that help breakdown carbohydrates,fats,and proteins. The liver produces bile,which is stored in the
gallbladder.Bile helps to make fat molecules (which otherwise arenot soluble in water) soluble, so they can be absorbed by the body. Second, the
smallintestine absorbs the nutrients from the digestive process. The inner wall of the smallintestine is covered by millions of tiny fingerlike projections
calledvilli.The villi arecovered with even tinier projections called microvilli. The combination of villi andmicrovilli increase the surface area of the
small intestine greatly, allowing absorption of nutrients to occur. Undigested material travels next to the large intestineileum(the last section). The

down U over the coiled small intestine. It begins at thelower right-hand side of the body and ends on the lower left-hand side. The large intestineis about 5-6 feet long. It
has 3 parts: thececum,thecolon,and therectum.The cecum is a pouch at the beginning of the large intestine. This area allows food to pass from the
smallintestine to the large intestine. The colon is where f luids and salts are absorbed and extendsfrom the cecum to the rectum. The last part of the
large intestine is the rectum, which iswherefeces(waste material) is stored before leaving the body through the anus. The main job of the large
intestine is to remove water and salts (electrolytes)from the undigestedmaterial and to form solid waste that can be excreted.Bacteriain the large
intestine help to break down the undigested materials. The remaining contents of the large intestine aremoved toward the rectum, where feces are
stored until they leave the body through theanus as abowelmovement.
