Dehydration rates and rehydration efficacy of water and sports drink during one hour of moderate intensity exercise in well-trained flatwater kayakers

INTRODUCTION: The aim of this study is to investigate the amount of water loss and percentage dehydration experienced during 1 hour of paddling on the kayak ergometer so as to help coaches and athletes tailor a suitable and adequate rehydration regime. Also, rehydration efficacy between water and a well established, commercially available sports drink (Gatorade, [...]

Reducing hydration-linked events in nursing home residents.

The authors used a quasi-experimental treatment and control group design with 49 participants from four nursing homes to test the effectiveness of an 8-week hydration intervention in reducing hydration-linked events (HLEs). A Kaplan Meier survival curve with log rank test was calculated to determine incidence and time to occurrence of a HLE. Incidence of and [...]

Death from hyponatremia as a result of acute water intoxication in an Army basic trainee.

Several reports during the past 15 years have described hyponatremia as a result of excessive water intake by athletes during endurance races. The high rates of fluid consumption have been attributed to the desire of athletes to prevent heat injury. The military has adopted guidelines for programmed drinking to maintain performance and minimize the risk [...]

Dehydration induced by bowel preparation in older adults does not result in cognitive dysfunction.

BACKGROUND: Postoperative cognitive dysfunction occurs in a proportion of patients after noncardiac surgery. Older patients are particularly vulnerable. We hypothesized that dehydration, a common perioperative problem in the elderly, may provoke cognitive dysfunction. We used a clinical scenario free of surgical/anesthetic intervention to determine whether dehydration caused by bowel preparation results in cognitive changes. METHODS: [...]

Hydration and acute confusion in long-term care residents.

Although it is generally appropriate for a healthy adult to consume 2000 to 2500 ml per day, the literature does not address evaluating any standard. The objective here was to develop a weight-based hydration management intervention and evaluate the impact of this on the incidence of acute confusion (AC) using an N = 98. The [...]

Breastfeeding-associated neonatal hypernatremic dehydration in a medical center: a clinical investigation

BACKGROUND: Hypernatremic dehydration amongst exclusively breastfed neonates due to inadequate breastfeeding or underfeeding is a potentially devastating condition. We investigated the epidemiological and clinic features of hypernatremic dehydration. METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of neonates that were less than 28 days of age, weighing > or =2000 g with gestational age of 36 [...]

Saliva parameters as potential indices of hydration status during acute dehydration.

PURPOSE: Firstly, to identify whether saliva flow rate, osmolality, and total protein are potential markers of hydration, we compared changes in these parameters with changes in plasma osmolality during progressive dehydration. Secondly, we compared the sensitivity of saliva parameters to track hydration changes with the sensitivity of urine osmolality. Thirdly, to test the hypothesis that [...]
