Diarrhea consists of the passage of watery and loose stools multiple times a day (usually more than 3), though specific definitions may vary when applied for distinct studies or populations. Diarrhea is one of the most common medical conditions, and mild occurrences may not require medical attention. For health care providers, it is crucial to be familiar with this entity regardless of specialty and scope of practice. This activity outlines the evaluation and management as well as different causes of bacterial diarrhea. The role of the interprofessional team in management is explained in patients with this common condition.
