    Pathophsyiology of AGE

    Uploaded by

    This document outlines the pathophysiology of a gastrointestinal disease. It lists non-modifiable risk factors like gender and age, and modifiable risk factors like lifestyle and diet. Various pathogens like Salmonella, Shigella, and E. coli can cause the disease by infecting the intestines after ingestion. This leads to nausea, vomiting, fluid and electrolyte imbalance, and eventually diarrhea, as endotoxins are released and the bowel wall is invaded and its lining destroyed, inhibiting absorption and increasing secretion in the intestines.
