Official Title: DESHYDRAT : Assessment of the Prevalence of Dehydration Among 9 to 11 Year-old Children.
Brief Summary: The aim of the study is to determinate the prevalence of moderate dehydration among children aged 9 to 11 who are going to school.
Detailed Summary: Many children have a limited caloric intake at the breakfast with a limited amount of water intake. There is no data about the prevalence of dehydration in children who are regularly going to school in France.
Sponsor: Rennes University Hospital
Current Primary Outcome: Prevalence of dehydration (as defined as urinary osmolality > 800 mOsmol/l) Osmolality is measured by freezing point depression [ Time Frame: Day 1 ]
Original Primary Outcome: Same as current
Current Secondary Outcome:
- Amount of water intake at breakfast [ Time Frame: Day 1 ]To determine whether urinary osmolality is correlated to total water intake at breakfast
- Total energy and nutrient intake [ Time Frame: Day 1 ]To determine whether urinary osmolality is correlated to nutrient and energy intake at breakfast.
Original Secondary Outcome: Same as current
