This paper reviews the health services literature regarding care for gastroenteritis in children. United States health care utilization, use of oral rehydration therapy (ORT), and quality of care considerations are described. The literature suggests that some US children may receive too much care while others may not be getting enough and that physician practices continue to differ from expert recommendations.
