New Jersey Patient Symptoms Line Listing (Gastrointestinal Infection)

Bacterial infections include Escherichia coli and salmonella infections. The norovirus is an example of the viral infection. Gastrointestinal infections are characterized by abdominal cramps and diarrhea, but the infection may include other symptoms including vomiting, fever, appetite loss. The New Jersey Patient Symptoms Line Listing (Gastrointestinal Infection) app tracks patient symptoms for those with GI infections. For each patient, the app user will check all present signs and symptoms, such as fever, muscle ache, diarrhea, bloody stool samples, and abdominal pain. The date and time of onset should also be included, along with the incubation period, duration, and specimen type. The health care provider can make additional comments about treatment. By understanding the characteristics and signs and symptoms of each infection, health care providers will be able to create a treatment plan for each patient, identify risk factors, and maintain infection control.
