The aim of our study was to clarify the attitudes of pediatricians toward children's consumption of ionic beverages.
A questionnaire survey of pediatric practitioners' attitudes toward the consumption of ionic beverages was administered to 537 doctors under 60 years of age who were members of the Japanese Pediatric Society.
We received 215 valid responses from 182 board-certified pediatric specialists and 31 non-specialists. Approximately 60% of respondents recommended ionic beverages either often or sometimes. About half of all respondents cautioned patients about excessive consumption. About 40% had experienced at least one instance of excessive consumption characterized by acute symptoms including vomiting, diarrhea, and pyrexia. Specialists were more likely to recommend ionic beverages for oral rehydration than did non-specialists. Non-specialists more often recommended ionic beverages to patients with pyrexia.
Pediatricians' attitudes toward children's consumption of ionic beverages were generally appropriate. Pediatric specialists' attitudes were more appropriate than were those of non-specialists.
我们研究的目的是阐明儿科医生对儿童饮用离子饮料的态度。
对537名60岁以下的日本儿科学会会员儿科医生进行了关于饮用离子饮料态度的问卷调查。
我们收到了来自182名获得委员会认证的儿科专家和31名非专家的215份有效回复。约60%的受访者经常或有时推荐离子饮料。所有受访者中约一半会提醒患者注意过量饮用。约40%的受访者至少经历过一例以呕吐、腹泻和发热等急性症状为特征的过量饮用情况。与非专家相比,专家更倾向于推荐离子饮料用于口服补液。非专家更常向发热患者推荐离子饮料。
儿科医生对儿童饮用离子饮料的态度总体上是恰当的。儿科专家的态度比非专家更恰当。
