Abstract
Thirty-nine of forty neonates with mean
dehydration equivalent to 6.7% of bodyweight
were orally rehydrated with a glucose/electrolyte
solution. Only one patient required any intravenous
fluids for rehydration. Hypernatræmia and acidosis
present at admission were corrected within a few hours
without complications. It seems that oral rehydration, is
suitable for neonates as well as for children and adults.
