Of 2478 babies with spontaneous delivery, 14 (1.4%) babies had diarrhea, while of 889 babies with obstetrical intervention delivery 101 (11.4%) babies had diarrhea. The difference was statistically significant (pL. 0.001). Of 115 babies with diarrhea, there were 81 (60.7%) with moderate and 11 (23.0%) wirh severe dehydration. The mortality rate was 47.5% in patients with accompanying diseases and 0.0% in them without. The mortality rare in babies with birth weights < 1500 gr was 37.9% and 16.9% in babies with birthwejghts ≥2500 gram (p<. 0.001).
