Summary:Clinical and epidemiological features of acute intestinal infections (AKI) caused by opportunistic enterobacteria (UPE) in young children, depending on the etiological factor were established. The information sources were the data of Rospotrebnadzor Administration in the Astrakhan oblast (AO), medical documentation (720 case histories) of patients under the age of 1 year treated in GBUZ «Regional clinical infectious hospital named. A. M. Nichogi» Astrakhan from January 2000 through December 2020. AKI caused by UPE in children in AO is 74%, including 60% in children under 1 year of age, of the total number of patients with AKI of specified bacterial etiology. Regardless of the etiological factor, AKI caused by UPE occurred in the form of monoinfection (83%), moderate severity (62%). Symptoms of intoxication had a direct correlation (r = 0,52 to 0,76; p < 0.001) with the severity of diarrheal syndrome and dehydration. With a decrease in the age of the child, the duration of relief of these symptoms increased (r = -0,72; p < 0,001).
