Pediatric Gastroenteritis:
Is That IV Really Necessary?
Wendy Woolley, DO
Pediatric Grand Rounds

Objectives
 Review the management of acute
uncomplicated gastroenteritis in the
pediatric population
 Discuss the options for rehydration
therapy
 Review the literature on the use of
antiemetic agents
Epidemiology
 Annually in the US, AGE accounts for
 ~2-3 million physician visits
 ~220,000 hospital admissions
 ~300 deaths
 Worldwide, AGE causes
 ~125 million physician visits
 ~9 million hospital admissions
 ~1.8 million deaths
Etiology
 Viral
 Typically low grade fever, vomiting and copious,
watery diarrhea lasting ~5-7 days
 Bacterial
 More likely to have high fevers, shaking chills and
bloody diarrhea than viral causes
 Parasitic
 Giardia and Cryptosporidium most common in US
Pathophysiology - Diarrhea
 Pathogen invades the
mucosal cells of the GI
tract
 Normal sodium and
osmotic balance are
disrupted
 Intestinal fluid output
overwhelms the
absorptive ability of the GI
tract
Pathophysiology - Vomiting
 Receptors in the GI
tract and
neurotransmitters
stimulate the
chemoreceptor
trigger zone and
vomiting center of
the brain
 The vomiting center
stimulates salivation
and the pharyngeal,
GI and abdominal
muscles
So What Should We Do?
AAP Recommendations
 ORT as first
line therapy
 Rehydration
 Replacement
 Nutrition
Based on CDC guidelines from MMWR Recommendations and Reports, Nov.
21, 2003. Managing Acute Gastroenteritis Among Children. Oral Rehydration,
Maintenance, and Nutritional Therapy
Managing Acute Gastroenteritis Among Children
MMWR Recommendations and Reports, November 21, 2003.
 ORS treatment is simple and can be started
at home
 Early intervention can reduce complications of
dehydration and malnutrition
 This can decrease the amount of physician visits,
hospital admissions and morbidity associated with
AGE
 An age-appropriate diet should be continued
to maintain adequate nutrient intake.
Rehydration Therapy
 Oral Rehydration
Therapy (ORT)
 Rehydration: replacing
losses of fluids and
electrolytes
 Maintenance: replace
ongoing losses with
adequate nutrition

to predict longer LOS and need for IV
hydration
Managing Acute Gastroenteritis Among Children
MMWR Recommendations and Reports, November 21, 2003.
 ORT should be
started at home
at first sign of
diarrhea
 When should
they seek
evaluation?
 When do they
need hospital
admission?
What About Medications?
 Pharmacologic Therapy
 Antimicrobial therapy usually not indicated
 Antidiarrheal and antimotility agents have
significant side effects associated with use
 Antiemetics are “usually unnecessary in
acute diarrhea management”
 “Ondansetron….can be effective in decreasing
vomiting and limiting hospital admission”

Does ORT take too long?

How About Vomiting?
Does ORT Still Work?
 “Weak and unreliable evidence
regarding the clinical effectiveness and
safety of antiemetics prescribed for
children with vomiting due to AGE”
 Ondansetron may reduce the amount of
children requiring IV hydration and
admission rates

Use of Antiemetic Agents in Acute
Gastroenteritis:
A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis
DeCamp et al. Arch Pediatr Adolesc Med 2008
 Ondansetron is the only antiemetic
agent with consistent, proven efficacy in
reducing vomiting from gastroenteritis.
 “We can recommend its use in the ED
for dehydrated children at risk for ORT
failure”
Use of Antiemetic Agents in Acute
Gastroenteritis:
A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis
DeCamp et al. Arch Pediatr Adolesc Med 2008
 “Government agencies and professional
societies should strongly consider
amending current gastroenteritis
treatment guidelines to incorporate the
use of ondansetron for certain children
with gastroenteritis”
Where Do We Go From Here?
 Develop a protocol for treatment of AGE
 Parental and staff education about ORT
 Data for antiemetics is not conclusive but
favors ondansetron over other antiemetics
 Consider ondansetron use to facilitate ORT in
mild-moderate dehydration
 Reserve IVF for severe dehydration and ORT
failure
