To evaluate clinical and laboratory assessment of dehydration severity in children, 1 to 36 months, with acute gastroenteritis.
Clinical and laboratory measures and weight change following rehydration were collected for enrolled children.
Pediatric emergency department.
Likelihood ratio (LR+) and 95% confidence interval (CI): for a clinical score of 0, the LR+ was 2.2 (95% CI = 0.9-5.3); for a clinical score of 1 to 4, the LR+ was 1.3 (95% CI = 0.90-1.74); for a clinical score of 5 to 8, the LR+ was 5.2 (95% CI = 2.2-12.8); for a venous pH <7.32, the LR+ was 7.2 (95% CI = 2.4-21.9); and for serum bicarbonate <18 mmol/L, the LR+ was 11.6 (95% CI = 3.5-38.0).
Clinicians may find it useful to incorporate the Clinical Dehydration Scale and laboratory measures into clinical decision-making algorithms to assess dehydration severity in children with acute gastroenteritis.
评估1至36个月患急性肠胃炎儿童脱水严重程度的临床和实验室评估方法。
收集纳入研究儿童的临床和实验室指标以及补液后的体重变化。
儿科急诊科。
似然比(LR+)及95%置信区间(CI):临床评分为0时,LR+为2.2(95%CI = 0.9 - 5.3);临床评分为1至4时,LR+为1.3(95%CI = 0.90 - 1.74);临床评分为5至8时,LR+为5.2(95%CI = 2.2 - 12.8);静脉血pH <7.32时,LR+为7.2(95%CI = 2.4 - 21.9);血清碳酸氢盐<18 mmol/L时,LR+为11.6(95%CI = 3.5 - 38.0)。
临床医生可能会发现,将临床脱水量表和实验室指标纳入临床决策算法,对于评估急性肠胃炎儿童的脱水严重程度很有用。
