  • Title: Dehydration and fluid therapy.
    Author: Gottlieb RP.
    Journal: Emerg Med Clin North Am; 1983 Apr; 1(1):113-23. PubMed ID: 6394282.
    Abstract:
    In the clinical setting, dehydration implies loss of both water and electrolytes. This is indeed what occurs in diarrhea, which is the most common cause of dehydration in children. The treatment of diarrhea is detailed first, followed by consideration of several less common conditions leading to dehydration in early infancy, including acute adrenal insufficiency and pyloric stenosis.
