BACKGROUND Monitoring for disparities in health and services received based upon gender, income, and geography should continue as renewed efforts to reduce under-five mortality are made in response to millennium development goal #4. The purpose of this survey was to provide a nationally representative description of current childhood diarrhoea management practices and disparities in Bangladesh....

This practice parameter formulates recommendations for health care providers about the management of acute diarrhea in children ages 1 month to 5 years. It was developed through a comprehensive search and analysis of the medical literature. Expert consensus opinion was used to enhance or formulate recommendations where data were insufficient. The Provisional Committee on Quality Improvement of ...

OBJECTIVES The Increased Flow Utilizing Subcutaneously-Enabled (INFUSE)-Pediatric Rehydration Study was designed to assess efficacy, safety, and clinical utility of recombinant human hyaluronidase (rHuPH20)-facilitated subcutaneous rehydration in children 2 months to 10 years of age. METHODS Patients with mild/moderate dehydration requiring parenteral treatment in US emergency departments wer...

BACKGROUND The World Health Organization (WHO) rehydration management guidelines (Plan C) for children with acute gastroenteritis (AGE) and severe dehydration are widely practiced in resource-poor settings, yet have never been formally evaluated in a clinical trial. A recent audit of outcome of AGE at Kilifi County Hospital, Kenya noted that 10% of children required high dependency care (20% mo...

BACKGROUND Based on European recommendations of ESPGHAN/ESPID from 2008, first line therapy for dehydration caused by acute gastroenteritis (AGE) is oral rehydration solution (ORS). In case of oral route failure, nasogastric tube enteral rehydration is as efficient as intra-venous rehydration and seems to lead to fewer adverse events. The primary objective was to describe rehydration strategies...

Based on theoretical analysis and numerical calculations, this study systematically investigated the changes in rice tillering dynamics simulation of stem tiller growth during stage using farm water level as a regulation index for irrigation drainage. pit testing, results show that both flooding drought suppress output have certain compensating effect following rehydration. Heavy period reduced...

The mustard variety Felicia was used to analyze the response and compensation effects of growth physiology under drought stress rehydration conditions at seedling stage. seedlings were exposed different levels simulated by polyethylene glycol (PEG). parameters, fresh weight, chlorophyll fluorescence, antioxidant system measured. results showed that inhibited roots shoots reduced performance pho...

Diarrhoeal infections are the fifth leading cause of death worldwide and continue to take a high toll on child health. Mushrooming of slums due to continuous urbanization has made diarrhoea one of the biggest public-health challenges in metropolitan cities in India. The objective of the study was to carry out a community-based health and nutrition-education intervention, focusing on several fac...
