Contamination of fresh water bodies by human enteric viruses from wastewater discharge is a well-established phenomenon. Here we propose a model of viral contamination of rivers based on acute gastroenteritis epidemiology and assess how well it can simulate in situ experimental monitoring.
OBJECTIVE
To determine the efficacy of outpatient rapid i.v. rehydration in correcting dehydration and resolving vomiting in children with mild to moderate dehydration resulting from acute gastroenteritis.
METHODS
We carried out a prospective cohort study in an urban children's hospital. A
This review aimed to meta-analyze evidence of efficacy and safety of one single dose of ondansetron for vomiting in children and adolescents with acute gastroenteritis. Database searches of MEDLINE (PubMed), Scopus (Elsevier), Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL), and

BACKGROUND
Vomiting in children with acute gastroenteritis (AG) is not only a direct cause of fluid loss but it is also a major factor of failure of oral rehydration therapy (ORT). Physicians who provide care to paediatric patients in the emergency department (ED) usually prescribe intravenous fluid
In high-income countries. ondansetron is an effective antiemetic in children with gastroenteritis, but data from low- and middle-income countries are sparse. This study aimed to evaluate evidences of the effectiveness of ondansetron in preventing vomiting and reducing the use of intravenous fluids

Introduction The management of vomiting and antiemetic therapy in young children with acute gastroenteritis (AGE) has not been standardized by any management guidelines. Antiemetic drugs including promethazine, prochlorperazine, metoclopramide, ondansetron, and domperidone are readily used in the
