  Acute gastroenteritis is one of the main causes of morbidity and mortality in childhood. Numerous studies have confirmed the safety and efficacy of oral rehydration therapy, however, intravenous rehydration is still used in scenarios where it is not possible to hydrate the patient through the enteral route. Over the past decade, evidence has accumulated suggesting that administration of a hypotonic intravenous maintenance fluid in hospitalized children increases the risk of hyponatremia.GENERAL OBJECTIVE: Determine the frequency of hyponatremia in patients with gastroenteritis receiving hypotonic saline solutions in the Doctor Jose Renan Esquivel Children's Hospital pediatric ward between January and December 2016.MATERIALS AND METHODS: We will carry out a retrospective, descriptive study. To examine the clinical history of children with no previous medical history from 1 month to 15 years who entered the Doctor Jose Renan Esquivel Children's Hospital pediatric ward from January to December 2016, with a diagnosis of acute gastroenteritis. To obtain the sample we used 95% confidence, the sample was obtained from 190 patients and was calculated using the Epi Info version 7.0 programRESULTS: There are no significant differences in the development of hyponatremia to the use of hypotonic saline solutions.CONCLUSION: There is no record of hyponatremia in patients with acute gastroenteritis who receive hypotonic saline solutions in the Doctor Jose Renan Esquivel Children's Hospital pediatric ward.
