Comparison of Glucose ORS with and without Rice Based ORS in Treatment of Acute Gastroenteritis from 6 Month to 5 Years

Introduction: Acute gastroenteritis-related diarrhea is a major contributor to pediatric morbidity and mortality. Although the success of various oral rehydration formulations varies treatment choice ultimately depends on underlying reason, remains crucial for efficient early therapies. Objective: To compare outcome Glucose ORS with without rice based in acute gastroenteritis from 6 month 5 years terms mean stool frequency. Study Design: Randomized clinical trial Settings: The study will be done at department Peads Ittifaq Hospital Lahore 9 December 2018 19 June 2019. Sample Technique: Non probability consecutive sampling Methodology: Children both sexes were included this analysis cases between ages months years. They divided into two separate groups. For 48 hours, group A was given G-ORS, whereas B soup. Over course typical individual needs use washroom. Results: Eighty people took part (forty each group). There 25 males Group (40.02%), 26 (50.98%). average those very comparable (3.30±1.18 vs. 2.07±1.03 years, p=0.29). baseline frequency 4.11±2.33, while that 5.01±2.81 (p= 0.51). also had higher weight, 6.87±1.97, than B, 6.28±2.01. an 2.15±0.77 bowel movements 2.08±0.73 (p=0.91). 2.170.78 males, 2.14±0.69 females, 2.11±0.72 combined no statistically significant differences age, BMI over 10, or Practical implication: purpose research more exactly explain authentic benefit rice-based comparison glucose evaluate whether not there differences. Conclusion: Both groups reduced number incidences confounding variable roughly same rate, difference them either reduction stratification any study's other variables.
