The four study hospitals cared for 30% of Norwegian children. The severity of gastroenteritis was assessed using Vesikari scores.

The rotavirus was found in 314\/514 children with stool samples (61%). Severe gastroenteritis, indicated by a Vesikari score of \u226511, was found in 392\/549 (71%) with completed scores, but only 40 of 649 (6%) assessed for dehydration were more than 5% dehydrated. None had sodium &lt;130 mmol\/L. Glucose of 3.0\u20133.3 mmol\/L was detected in 52\/578 (9%) and &lt;3.0 mmol\/L in 33\/578 (6%). Hypoglycaemia, elevated urea, low bicarbonate and negative base excess were associated with disease severity. The duration of vomiting and the rotavirus infection were associated with hypoglycaemia. Elevated urea, low bicarbonate and negative base excess had high specificities, but low sensitivities.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>Hypoglycaemia was
