Global Pediatric Electrolyte Solutions Market Definition

Pediatric electrolyte solution, also known as an oral rehydration solution. The product Pediatric Electrolyte Solution is used to replenish fluids and minerals (such as sodium and potassium) lost as a result of diarrhea and vomiting. It aids in the prevention or treatment of dehydration. The proper amount of fluids and minerals is essential for the body’s normal functioning. Salt, water, and sugar make up the solution, which replenishes fluids and electrolytes that have been lost in the body. It also aids in absorbing water by the intestines, preventing further dehydration.

Oral electrolyte solutions are typically used to rehydrate children suffering from diarrhea and to keep them hydrated. Except for patients with severe dehydration, an oral rehydration solution (ORS) is usually preferable over intravenous fluids in diarrheal illness. The preferred ORS is one that is similar to the World Health Organization’s glucose-containing reduced osmolarity ORS. Dehydration caused by diarrhea in children is treated with pediatric electrolyte solutions. Depending on the severity of the disease, these products can be taken orally or injected. In pediatric patients, oral rehydration salts (ORS) and intravenous fluids (IVF) are commonly used.

Global Pediatric Electrolyte Solutions Market Overview

Rising diarrheal cases in infants and children are expected to drive the growth of the global Pediatric Electrolyte Solutions Market. Over the forecast period, rising diarrheal cases worldwide, particularly in developing countries, are supposed to drive market growth. According to an article published in September 2018 by the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME), 30 million cases of severe diarrhea and 330,000 deaths of children under the age of 5 years were reported in Africa in 2015. In children, the risk of dehydration from diarrhea is three times higher.

Diarrhea is still one of the most common causes of infant death, and the electrolyte solution provides a one-stop solution. Complementary feeding before the age of six months, improper handwashing facility, usage of the unimproved water source, infant rota vaccination status, and using a cup to feed infants are all factors that increase the risk of diarrhea. Additionally, increasing product launches of pediatric electrolyte solutions are fueling the market growth. The growing demand for pediatric electrolyte solutions from emerging countries is driving the growth of the Pediatric Electrolyte Solutions Market.
