Full transcript
Thanks for bringing Aanya in today, Mrs Rao. Can you describe how her diarrhoea has been since it started?
ನಿನ್ನೆ ಸಂಜೆಯಿಂದ ಅವಳಿಗೆ ನೀರಿನಂತಹ ಭೇದಿ ಆಗುತ್ತಿದೆ, ಡಾಕ್ಟರ್. ರಕ್ತ ಕಾಣಿಸುತ್ತಿಲ್ಲ, ಆದರೆ ಅವಳು ತುಂಬಾ ದಣಿದಂತೆ ಕಾಣುತ್ತಿದ್ದಾಳೆ.
How many times has she had loose, watery stools since yesterday evening, and has she had any fever, vomiting, or blood mixed in?
ಇವತ್ತು ಬೆಳಗ್ಗೆಯಿಂದ ಸುಮಾರು ಆರು ಬಾರಿ ಭೇದಿ ಆಗಿದೆ, ಸ್ವಲ್ಪ ಜ್ವರ ಕೂಡ ಇದೆ, ಆದರೆ ರಕ್ತ ಅಥವಾ ವಾಂತಿ ಇಲ್ಲ.
Is she drinking fluids normally, or refusing them, and have you noticed dry lips, fewer wet nappies, or unusual tiredness today?
ಅವಳು ನೀರು ಕುಡಿಯಲು ಒಪ್ಪುತ್ತಿಲ್ಲ, ತುಟಿಗಳು ಒಣಗಿವೆ, ಮತ್ತು ಬೆಳಗ್ಗಿನಿಂದ ಒಂದೇ ಬಾರಿ ಮೂತ್ರ ಮಾಡಿದ್ದಾಳೆ.
This looks like viral gastroenteritis, quite common in young children. I'd like her to start an oral rehydration solution, a few sips every ten minutes, unless she starts vomiting again.
ಅವಳಿಗೆ ಆಂಟಿಬಯಾಟಿಕ್ ಬೇಕಾಗುತ್ತದೆಯೇ, ಡಾಕ್ಟರ್? ನನಗೆ ತುಂಬಾ ಚಿಂತೆಯಾಗುತ್ತಿದೆ.
If symptoms worsen or she becomes very lethargic, take her to Grampians Health Urgent Care in Ballarat for review; she won't need antibiotics unless a stool test confirms bacterial infection.
ಸರಿ, ಅರ್ಥವಾಯಿತು. ಅವಳು ಮತ್ತೆ ಶಾಲೆಗೆ ಅಥವಾ ಡೇಕೇರ್ಗೆ ಯಾವಾಗ ಹೋಗಬಹುದು?
She should stay home from childcare until she's had no diarrhoea for at least twenty-four hours, and please wash hands thoroughly after nappy changes.
ತುಂಬಾ ಧನ್ಯವಾದಗಳು, ಡಾಕ್ಟರ್. ನಾನು ಆಕೆಗೆ ORS ಕೊಡುತ್ತೇನೆ ಮತ್ತು ಕೈ ತೊಳೆಯುವುದನ್ನು ಖಚಿತಪಡಿಸುತ್ತೇನೆ.
