DESHYDRAT : Assessment of the Prevalence of Dehydration Among 9 to 11 Year-old Children (DESHYDRAT)

DESHYDRAT : Assessment of the Prevalence of Dehydration Among 9 to 11 Year-old Children.

The aim of the study is to determinate the prevalence of moderate dehydration among children aged 9 to 11 who are going to school.

Study Overview

• Status: Completed
• Conditions: Dehydration

Detailed Description

Many children have a limited caloric intake at the breakfast with a limited amount of water intake. There is no data about the prevalence of dehydration in children who are regularly going to school in France.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
Prevalence of dehydration (as defined as urinary osmolality > 800 mOsmol/l) Osmolality is measured by freezing point depression	Prevalence of dehydration (as defined as urinary osmolality > 800 mOsmol/l) Osmolality is measured by freezing point depression	Day 1

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
Amount of water intake at breakfast	To determine whether urinary osmolality is correlated to total water intake at breakfast	Day 1
Total energy and nutrient intake	To determine whether urinary osmolality is correlated to nutrient and energy intake at breakfast.	Day 1
