Article Synopsis
- Acute gastroenteritis (AGE) leads to dehydration, which can severely affect patients; this study focuses on the role of end-tidal carbon dioxide (ETCO2) in assessing dehydration and its recovery.
- The study involved 49 patients with varying dehydration levels, measuring vital signs, ETCO2, and inferior vena cava (IVC) dimensions before and after fluid replacement therapy.
- Results showed significant increases in ETCO2 and IVC dimensions post-treatment, indicating that monitoring ETCO2 could be a valuable tool in evaluating dehydration and its improvement.
