Summary

This study looks at two common IV fluids given to children aged 6 months to 5 years who are dehydrated from a stomach bug. The goal is to see if one type helps restore normal blood chemistry faster than the other. Doctors choose the fluid as part of normal care, and the research team simply observes the results without any extra tests or procedures.
