Abstract : Rotavirus is the major cause of severe diarrhea in children under 5 years old in developed and developing countries. Since improvements in sanitation and hygiene have limited impact on reducing the incidence of rotavirus diarrhea, implementation of a vaccine will be a better solution. We conducted an observational study to determine the disease burden and to identify the genotype of circulating rotavirus in Indonesia. Hospitalized children due to acute diarrhea were enrolled from four teaching hospitals in Indonesia. Stool samples were collected based on WHO protocol and were tested for the presence of group A rotavirus using enzyme immunoassay. Then, rotavirus positive samples were genotyped using RT-PCR. Fisher’s Exact tests, Chi square tests and logistic regression were performed to determine differences across hospital and year in rotavirus prevalence and genotype distribution. There were 4235 samples from hospitalized children with diarrhea during 2006, 2009 and 2010. Among them, the rotavirus positive were 2220 samples (52.42 %) and incidence rates varied between hospitals. The G1P[8], G1P[6], and G2P[4] were recognized as the dominant genotypes circulating strains in Indonesia and the proportion of predominant strains changed by year. Our study showed the high incidence of rotavirus infection in Indonesia with G1P[8], G1P[6], and G2P[4] as the dominant strains circulating in Indonesia. These results reinforce the need for a continuing surveillance of rotavirus strain in Indonesia.Keywords: Rotavirus, G-type, P-type, Acute diarrhea
