病毒性腸胃炎
Viral Gastroenteritis
腸胃炎指腸胃(包括小腸及大腸)發炎。若腸胃
炎由病毒所引致，這稱為病毒性腸胃炎。
Gastroenteritis is an inflammation of the
stomach and intestines (both small and
large).
病毒性腸胃炎
Viral Gastroenteritis
在天氣涼的季節較為常見。
It is more commonly found during cooler
months of the year.
病毒性腸胃炎可由多種病毒引致，最常見的是
諾沃克病毒及輪狀病毒。
Viral gastroenteritis is an infection caused by
a variety of viruses. The most common
viruses that cause gastroenteritis are Norwalk
virus and rotavirus.
病毒性腸胃炎:最新情況
Viral Gastroenteritis: Update
• 截至9月15日，今年共有103宗由諾沃克類病毒引
致的腸胃炎爆發，影響約1142人，大部份個案均
發生於院舍，包括幼兒中心、學校及老人院。
As of September 15, there were 103 reported
cases of viral gastroenteritis caused by Norwalklike virus, affecting about 1142 persons and
occurring in institutions like schools, child care
centres and homes for the elderly.
• 在二○○三年，共有113宗，涉及1719人。
In 2003, there were 113 reported cases,
involving 1719 persons.
病徵
Symptoms

病毒性腸胃炎的主要徵狀有:
The main symptoms of viral gastroenteritis are:
1. 腹瀉 (diarrhea)；
2. 嘔吐(vomiting)；
3. 其他症狀包括頭痛、發燒及腹痛；
Other symptoms include headache, fever, and
abdominal cramps;

症狀一般在染病後一至兩天開始出現，可持續一
至十天，視乎致病病毒而定；
In general, the symptoms begin 1 to 2 days following
infection with a virus that causes gastroenteritis and
may last for 1 to 10 days, depending on which virus
causes the illness.
傳播途徑
Mode of transmission

病毒性腸胃炎具傳染性，任何年齡的人士都有機會染上此
病，且易於安老院及學校等院舍環境出現及傳播；其傳播
途徑包括：Viral gastroenteritis is contagious. People in
any age group may be infected and it is particularly easy
to occur and spread in institutional setting like residential
care homes for the elderly or schools. It can be
transmitted via the following means:
1.
食用或飲用受病毒污染的食物或水；
By food or water contaminated with the viruses
接觸患者的嘔吐物或糞便；
By contact with vomit or faeces from infected persons;
接觸受病毒污染的物品；或
By contact with contaminated objects; or
經噴沫傳染。
By aerosol spread.

治療
Treatment
 治理方面，不論患者是成人或兒童，治療的主要目的同樣是防止
病者身體失去大量水分(脫水)。
The most important point for both children and adult is to
prevent severe loss of fluids (dehydration).
 除非經醫生指示，否則應避免使用抗生素(對病毒感染並無療效)
或其他藥物，去治理此病。
Medications, including antibiotics (which have no effect on
viruses) and other treatments, should be avoided unless
specifically recommended by a physician.
 此病對多數人而言並不嚴重。病者如多補充水分，一般都能完全
康復，而沒有長期後遺症。
Most people will not be seriously ill by viral gastroenteritis.
Those who get viral gastroenteritis require fluid replacement and
usually recover completely without any long-term problems.
預防 (1)
Preventive measures (1)


由於目前並無疫苗預防病毒性腸胃炎，要預防病
毒性腸胃炎，市民要採取以下措施，減低染病機
會：
Currently, there is no effective vaccination
against viral gastroenteritis. However, the public
is advised to reduce their chance of being
infected by adopting the following measures:
處理食物或進食前、如廁後，以及處理嘔吐物或
糞便後須徹底洗淨雙手；
Wash hands thoroughly before handling food and
eating, and after going to toilets and handling
vomitus or faecal matter;

Clean and disinfect contaminated areas and items promptly
and thoroughly with a diluted household bleach in the ratio of
1:49;
患病學生應在家休息，不應上課；
