General information about the trial
|
|||
Main objective of the trial |
To demonstrate the effectiveness of treatment with Bacillus clausii probiotic strain (Enterogermina) in combination with oral rehydration therapy (ORT) for a period of 5 days, in the duration of acute community-acquired diarrhea in Latin American children.
|
||
Protection of trial subjects |
The study was conducted by investigators experienced in the treatment of paediatric subjects. The parent(s) or guardian(s) as well as the children were fully informed of all pertinent aspects of the clinical trial as well as the possibility to discontinue at any time. In addition to the consent form for the parent(s)/guardian(s), an assent form in child appropriate language was provided and explained to the child. Repeated invasive procedures were minimised.
