Copyright policy )Clinical dehydration and glomerular filtration rate in acute paediatric gastroenteritis
AbstractAimTo evaluate changes in glomerular filtration rate in acute gastroenteritis.MethodsThe correlation between two clinical diagnostic scales and glomerular filtration rate has been investigated in 113 children with acute gastroenteritis in a paediatric emergency setting.ResultsA significant reduction of GFR was found in 10% children less than, and 5% children higher than, 2 years of age with acute gastroenteritis.ConclusionThe differences observed as for risk of renal hypoperfusion suggests to consider the age of children as an important determinant to consider the dehydration status in acute gastroenteritis.
