Northern Lincolnshire and Goole NHS Foundation Trust

Use the chart in Plan B to determine how much ORS to give. A range of amounts is given. Look below the child's weight (or age if the weight is not known) to find the recommended amount of ORS to give. For example, a 5-kg-child will usually need 200-400 ml of ORS solution in the first 4 hours. The amounts shown in the box are to be used as guides. ................
