The aim of the article is to emphasize the approach of the first-contact medical staff to the patient with dyspeptic syndromes.

The precise and goal-directed medical history based on the knowledge of basic epidemiological data from the Czech Republic

in the past years as well as precise physical examination are emphasized. Thereafter, the type of the illness (gastritis, enteritis,

colitis or their combination) and the course of the disease (acute, subacute or chronic) may be classified and the basic differential

diagnosis between the most frequent infectious and non-infectious causes may be assessed.

Keywords: diarrhoeal disease, medical history, physical examination, differential diagnosis
