Rotavirus gastroenteritis in the Czech Republic before the start of vakcinations

Original language description

The primary objective of our study was to investigate rotavirus gastroenteritis (RVGE) retrospectively in the Czech Republic (CzR) and try to estimate its significance in the most affected age groups in the prerotavirus vaccine era. To analyze the epidemiological data on RVGE in the CzR, two databases were used retrospectively. The first database consisted of regular yearly reports from 1998 to 2006. The second database used was EPIDAT (the official notification system of the hygiene service). The datafrom 1998 to 2006 was analysed. From 1998 to 2006, the laboratories reported 1,430 to 4,815 cases of RVGE per year. By extrapolation, in the CR in 2006, there were an estimated 4,076 rotavirus-related hospitalizations (696,7/100,000 in the age droup <5 years). The most commonly applied detection systems in 2006 were immunochromatography anf latex agglutination. Of the RVGE cases recorded in the Epidat database between 1998-2006, 76,0-89,2% were for children aged less than five years. Sea
