A child who has acute gastroenteritis but is able to tolerate oral fluids


Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a child who has acute gastroenteritis but is able to tolerate oral fluids. The nurse should anticipate providing which of the following types of fluid?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Oral rehydration solution. This is because oral rehydration solution contains the optimal balance of electrolytes such as sodium and potassium, which are crucial for rehydration in cases of gastroenteritis. It helps replace lost fluids and electrolytes more effectively than plain water or other fluids. Water (choice
B) lacks essential electrolytes and may not adequately rehydrate the child. Broth (choice
C) and diluted apple juice (choice
D) may also lack the necessary electrolyte balance and could potentially worsen dehydration. Hence, oral rehydration solution is the most appropriate choice for this scenario.
