When a patient is dehydrated, their body loses more fluids than it takes in, leading to an imbalance that affects normal bodily functions. Symptoms can include thirst, dry mouth, fatigue, dizziness, and decreased urine output. Severe dehydration can cause complications such as kidney damage, electrolyte imbalances, and, in extreme cases, shock. Prompt rehydration, either orally or intravenously, is essential to restore fluid balance and prevent serious health issues.
