Deficient fluid volume r/t loss of fluids and electrolytes as manifested by vomiting
Rationale
Dehydration is a common body fluid disturbance in infants and children and occurs, whenever the total output of fluid exceeds the total intake, regardless of the cause. Dehydration may result from a number of diseases that cause insensible losses through the skin and respiratory tract, through increased renal excretion, and through GI tract. Although dehydration can result from lack f oral intake, more often it is a result of abnormal losses such as those occurs in vomiting and diarrhea.
