Abstract

Training and planning for medical stability operations, to include humanitarian assistance, disaster relief, and medical readiness training exercises, has taken on new importance for today's military forces. Deployed medical forces providing care to local populations are presented with the challenge of limited resources and complex public health needs. In this paper, we review the epidemiology of diarrhea as one of the leading causes of mortality in these settings and provide an evidence based-approach for management within the framework of military medical stability operations.
