Conlon, T. Peto] Conclusions: The majority of people with infective diarrhoea, i.e. those with food poisoning or "traveller's diarrhoea”, are relatively straightforward and will usually settle with rehydration and observation. The main problems in the field of infectious diarrhoea are with differential diagnosis, particularly from inflammatory bowel disease. Controversy surrounds the use of anti-diarrhoeal agents and the role of empiric antibiotics has yet to be defined. Finally, the place of the surgery in the management of these conditions can be very difficult but a conservative approach to surgical intervention is probably the best option. New pathogens as causative agents of diarrhoea are found every few years. The demand for mass-produced and quick-cook foods is increasing and the rules regarding the preparation and storage of food are often not followed. Also, travel is becoming easier and many more people are visiting developing countries. For these reasons and others it is likely that the problem of infective diarrhoea will continue to increase in the future. In addition to elucidating the pathogenesis of various forms of infective diarrhoea, future research will be directed towards prevention, earlier diagnosis and the development of better medical therapies for this problem.
