[Comparison of curative effect and serum electrolytes between different oral rehydration salts in treatment of neurally mediated syncope children].
Abstract
To compare the curative effect and the changes of serum electrolytes between oral rehydration salts (ORS) I and ORS III treatment in neurally mediated syncope children.
Methods: The children with the symptom of unexplained syncope and pre-syncope were collected in Second Xiangya Hospital from May 2014 to May 2017. After head-up tilt test (HUTT), their serum electrolytes levels were examined. Children who were positive in the HUTT received ORS (ORS I or ORS III) and health education. Subjects were randomly divided into an ORS I group (n=27) and an ORS III group (n=49).
Results: There was no statistical significance in sex, age, height, body mass, initial diagnosis and re-diagnosis interval between the 2 groups (P>0.05); the total efficiency after ORS III and ORS I
treatment were 79.59% and 62.96%, respectively, with no statistical significance (χ2=2.483, P>0.05); the HUTT negative conversion rate after ORS III and ORS I treatment were 51.02% and 48.16%, respectively, with no statistical significance (χ2=0.058, P>0.05); before treatment, the serum sodium [(140.20±2.26) mmol/L vs (138.39±2.72) mmol/L; t=2.856, P<0.05] in the ORS III group was higher than that in the ORS I group, the serum phosphorus [(1.46±0.19) mmol/L
vs (1.65±0.29) mmol/L; t=3.146, P<0.05] in the ORS III group was lower than that in the ORS I
group; after treatment, the serum sodium [(140.31±2.01) mmol/L vs (138.88±2.08) mmol/L;
t=2.692, P<0.05] and serum calcium [(2.31±0.09) mmol/L vs (2.24±0.11) mmol/L; t=2.696, P<0.05] in the ORS III group were higher than those in the ORS I group, the serum phosphorus [(1.45±0.16) mmol/L vs (1.61±0.25) mmol/L; t=3.128, P<0.05] in the ORS III group was lower than that in the ORS I group; after ORS III treatment, there was no statistical significance in serum electrolytes between HUTT positive group and HUTT negative group (P>0.05); after ORS I treatment, the serum calcium [(2.29±0.10) mmol/L vs (2.19±0.10) mmol/L; t=2.501, P<0.05] and serum phosphorus [(1.71±0.24) mmol/L vs (1.50±0.21) mmol/L; t=2.392, P<0.05] in HUTT positive group were higher than those in HUTT negative group. There was no statistical significance in serum sodium, potassium, magnesium, and chloride (P>0.05); there was no statistical significance in serum electrolytes between pre-treatment and post-treatment in the ORS I group and the ORS III
group (P>0.05); there was no statistical significance in serum electrolytes between vasovagal syncope and postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome in the ORS I group and the ORS III
group before ORS treatment (P>0.05).
Conclusion: The ORS III and ORS I have the similar efficacy in the treatment of children with neurally mediated syncope. ORS III is easier to be accepted by children than ORS I, with better compliance.
