Which of the following is the best management plan? Check CBC and stool tests for pathogens Check CBC and stool tests for pathogens Prescribe oral rehydration solution Prescribe oral rehydration solution Prescribe oral antibiotics Prescribe oral antibiotics Begin IV fluids and hospitalize Begin IV fluids and hospitalize

” “More than 70 per cent of almost 11 million child deaths every year are attributable to six causes: diarrhoea, malaria, neonatal infection, pneumonia, preterm delivery, or lack of oxygen at birth.” - Unicef
