According to WHO, about 525,000 children under 5 years old die each year from diarrhea. Diarrhea can last for several days and can deprive the body of the water and salt it needs for life. Dehydration is one of the causes of diarrhea becoming more severe and leading to faster death. Therefore, timely rehydration is one of the necessary measures to help the baby's body not lose water when having diarrhea.

\Diarrhea is the passage of three or more loose or liquid stools per day (or more frequent bowel movements than usual). Frequent hard stools are not diarrhea, nor are they loose, "mushy" stools in breastfed babies.

Interventions to prevent diarrhea, including using clean water, clean restrooms, and washing hands with soap, can reduce the risk of disease. Diarrhea should be treated with an oral rehydration solution (ORS), a solution consisting of clean water, sugar, and salt

Dehydration when having diarrhea is one of the dangerous complications of diarrhea. During a period of diarrhea, body fluids containing important ions are lost through loose stools, vomit, sweat, urine, and breathing.

There are 3 levels of dehydration when having diarrhea

Level 1: Severe dehydration (at least two of the following):

- lethargy / unconscious

- sunken eyes

- unable to drink water or drinking poorly

- pinch the skin back very slowly (≥2 seconds)

Level 2: Normal dehydration (two or more of the following):

- restlessness, irritability

- sunken eyes

- drink eagerly, thirsty

Level 3: No dehydration (not enough signs to classify as mild or severe dehydration).
