What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • YOVIS BIMBIDietary supplement

    42 male and female subjects, aged between 3 and 14 years with acute diarrhea will be treated with Yovis BAMBINI. The 42 subjects will be recruited with a competitive enrolment at the involved study sites.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Evaluation of the efficacy of oral administration of probiotics food supplement in paediatric population with acute diarrhea

    Reduction of the number of loose stools per day

    Measured: Baseline, during the intervention, immediately after the intervention

  2. Evaluation of the efficacy of oral administration of probiotics food supplement in paediatric population with acute diarrhea

    Reduction of diarrhea duration.

    Measured: Baseline, during the intervention, immediately after the intervention

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Evaluation of the safety profile of probiotics food supplement

    Investigator Global Assessment of Safety (IGAS): using the 4-point scale:1= very good safety, 2 =good safety, 3 = moderate safety and 4 = poor safety. IGAS will be evaluated at the last visit.

    Measured: Immediately after the intervention

  2. Evaluation of the safety profile of probiotics food supplement

    Evaluation of the eventual presence adverse event/serious adverse events.

    Measured: During the intervention, immediately after the intervention

  3. Assessment of the compliance to the treatment

    Compilation of the daily diary to the family;Compilation of the degree satisfaction questionnaires to the family;Compilation of the degree satisfaction questionnaires to the patient

    Measured: During the intervention, immediately after the intervention

  4. Analysis of the hydration state

    Degree of dehydration using the Gorelick scale: using the 10-point score: 0 to 3 (mild dehydration), 3 to 5 (moderate dehydration), 6 to 10 (severe dehydration); Change in body weight;

    Measured: BaselinaDuring the intervention, immediately after the intervention
