Abstract:
Acute diarrhea in infants and toddlers is frequent. Especially severe dehydration increases the risk of mortality in these children. In the therapy for uncomplicated diarrhea (dehydration no more than 9% of body weight loss) it is possible to use oral rehydration solutions (ORS). They are prepared easily, applied immediately, and the composition is also optimal for the body fluids of patients. ORS may be used in general pediatric practice but also during the treatment in hospital. This short report brings new aspects and practical considerations for the use of ORS by the most disadvantaged populations, as well as the need for public health.
