Although incidence of persistent diarrhea episodes is lower than the incidence of acute diarrhea episodes (5%), the former is, due to its consequences--including great mortality--, a problem in pediatric practice. The authors present a synthesis of the topical knowledge of persistent diarrhea in children in developing countries. After the definition, incidence and impact of the persistent diarrhea and of its risk and prognostic factors, the paper reports on the main physiopathological aspects involved. The treatment of the persistent diarrhea is presented in a concise manner; both the dietary and drug treatments are recommended.
尽管持续性腹泻发作的发生率低于急性腹泻发作的发生率（5%），但由于其后果——包括高死亡率——它仍是儿科临床实践中的一个问题。作者对发展中国家儿童持续性腹泻的相关前沿知识进行了综述。在阐述了持续性腹泻的定义、发生率、影响及其风险和预后因素之后，本文报告了所涉及的主要生理病理学方面。文中以简洁的方式介绍了持续性腹泻的治疗方法，同时推荐了饮食和药物治疗。
