Info

Investigations 6. Renal functional tests: Blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and serum creatinine are elevated. The extent of their elevation is dependent on the degree and duration of dehydration.
Treatment The diagnosis of cholera is not mandatory before therapy. Steps in the management of a patient with suspected cholera are: 1. Assess the dehydration and classify the degree of dehydration as severe, some or no dehydration. 2. Rehydrate the patient and monitor frequently. Then, reassess hydration status. 3. Maintain hydration by replacing the ongoing fluid losses until diarrhoea stops. 4. Administer oral antibiotics to the patient with severe dehydration. 5. Feed the patient.
