Patient's question:
Patient Age: Six and a half months. On April 26, 2006, due to the baby's cough, I went to the hospital. After being diagnosed by the doctor as bronchitis (without fever), I started intravenous saline at the outpatient department. Thank you, doctor! As a mother, I am truly heartbroken! I am very anxious!Doctor's answer:
If some physiological conditions may manifest as reduced urine output in children. Some children drink less water or sweat more. When there is increased insensible water loss. It will be reflected as reduced urine output in children. But at this point, it is just a physiological state. As long as they drink more water and avoid excessive loss. It can be corrected quickly. When he has obvious gastroenteritis with vomiting and diarrhea. If sufficient water is not replenished in time. Dehydration may occur. A prominent symptom is reduced urine output. Therefore, reduced urine output should also be combined with whether the child has excessive other losses. At the same time, it is necessary to observe whether some children have other signs of dehydration. Such as reduced skin elasticity. The child's mental response situation should be comprehensively judged.
