Clinical dehydration and glomerular filtration rate in acute paediatric gastroenteritis / G.P. Milani, E.F. Fossali, A. Perri, A. Vettori, P. Grillo, C.V. Agostoni. - In: ACTA PAEDIATRICA. - ISSN 0803-5253. - 102:8(2013 Aug), pp. e360-e362.
Abstract:
AIM: To evaluate changes in glomerular filtration rate in acute gastroenteritis. METHODS:
The correlation between two clinical diagnostic scales and glomerular filtration rate has been investigated in 113 children with acute gastroenteritis in a paediatric emergency setting. RESULTS:
A significant reduction of GFR was found in 10% children less than, and 5% children higher than, 2 years of age with acute gastroenteritis. CONCLUSION:
The 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
