Dehydration is a medical condition that occurs when the water balance, which is the amount of water taken under the water lost, is negative. In case of a dehydrated child, the paediatrician should be able not only to quantify but also to recognize the quality of dehydration in order to prescribe the most appropriate therapy. The paediatrician should decide the optimal therapeutic intervention between oral therapy at home and intravenously rehydration at hospital.

Abstract

Dehydration is a medical condition that occurs when the water balance, which is the amount of water taken under the water lost, is negative. In case of a dehydrated child, the paediatrician should be able not only to quantify but also to recognize the quality of dehydration in order to prescribe the most appropriate therapy. The paediatrician should decide the optimal therapeutic intervention between oral therapy at home and intravenously rehydration at hospital.
