Summary

This study compares giving fluids by mouth (drinking tap water) versus through an IV to adults in the emergency department who need hydration. Researchers want to see if drinking water can deliver the prescribed amount of fluid just as well as an IV. The trial will also test whether it's practical to run a larger study on this question. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of the two methods and monitored during their stay.
