New study to track hidden salt and mineral imbalances in sick kids
NCT ID NCT07152951
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026
Summary
This study will look at 150 infants and children aged 1 month to 4 years who are admitted to a hospital gastroenterology unit with a gastrointestinal disease. The goal is to find out how common electrolyte disturbances (like low sodium or potassium) are in these children. By measuring these imbalances, researchers hope to better understand the problem and improve future care.
