Dehydration can cause a variety of symptoms ranging from mild to severe. Mild dehydration may cause increased thirst, dry mouth, and weakness while severe dehydration can lead to confusion, fainting, and decreased urine output. It is important to assess vital signs, skin moisture, mucous membranes, and urine output to determine the severity of dehydration. Intravenous fluids should be administered and output monitored closely to rehydrate the patient and stabilize their condition. The cause of dehydration must also be investigated which can be due to various issues like gastroenteritis, burns, or diabetes.
