Brief Summary: This study will look at children with dehydration secondary to gastroenteritis requiring IV rehydration and determine whether the proportion rehydrated after two hours is greater in the children who receive rapid intravenous rehydration RIVR or in the children who receive standard IV rehydration
Detailed Description: Despite a movement toward increased use of enteral rehydration many children still receive prolonged IV rehydration in the emergency department ED These children commonly receive a single IV bolus of normal saline followed by the administration of a hypotonic solution at a maintenance rate

The mean time spent in the ED by children receiving IV rehydration is significantly longer than the mean time required to treat all other conditions ED overcrowding has been associated with poor outcomes prolonged pain and suffering and dissatisfaction One of the solutions proposed in the American Academy of Pediatrics Policy Statement on ED overcrowding is that hospitals should strive to improve the efficiency of the care provided One small step in this direction may be to improve our management of gastroenteritis and dehydration
