Summary

Randomized (1:1 ratio) study of subcutaneous (SC) versus intravenous (IV) fluid rehydration in mildly to moderately dehydrated pediatric patients.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • Children of either gender from one month to ≤10 years of age.
  • Patients with mild or moderate dehydration
  • Healthy child except for the underlying etiology for dehydration
  • Pre-dehydration body weight ≥ 5th percentile for age
  • Parents or legal guardian(s) available to provide informed consent.

Exclusion Criteria

  • Severe dehydration
  • Shock or life-threatening situation (life expectancy 155 mEq/L).
  • Known hypokalemia (< 3.0 mEq/L).
  • Any medical condition likely to interfere with the patient's ability to fully complete all protocol-specified interventions, the ability to undergo all protocol-specified assessments, or likely to prolong the patient's need for medical attention beyond that required for treatment of dehydration.
  • Participation in an investigational drug or device study within 30 days prior to enrollment in this study.
