Renown Children's Hospital Pediatricians Advise Parents on Gastrointestinal Illness Affecting Reno Area School Children
Renown Children’s Hospital pediatric experts are alerting parents and caregivers to an increase in gastrointestinal (GI) illness among children in several Reno-area schools. While most cases are mild and most resolve at home, families should be aware of symptoms, supportive care measures, and when to call their pediatrician and seek medical attention.
“When a child is sick with vomiting or diarrhea, it can be stressful for families, but these illnesses are usually short-lived and manageable at home,” said Kris Deeter, MD, Physician-in-Chief, Renown Children’s Hospital and Chair of Pediatrics, University of Nevada Reno School of Medicine (UNR Med). “The good news is that most children recover quickly from GI illness with rest and hydration. Parents should focus on monitoring symptoms, hand washing and keeping children comfortable at home.”
