rapid rehydration methods

Rapid rehydration involves quickly replacing lost fluids and electrolytes to treat dehydration, especially in cases like severe diarrhea or dehydration from illness. This is often done using an oral rehydration solution (ORS), which is a carefully balanced mix of water, salts, and sugars. Drinking ORS helps restore hydration more effectively than water alone, as it promotes better absorption through the intestines. In some cases, healthcare professionals may use intravenous (IV) fluids for faster rehydration, delivering fluids directly into the bloodstream. The goal is to quickly replenish fluids and electrolytes to prevent complications and restore normal body function.
