Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Prevalence of dehydration (as defined as urinary osmolality > 800 mOsmol/l) Osmolality is measured by freezing point depression | Day 1 | Prevalence of dehydration (as defined as urinary osmolality \> 800 mOsmol/l) Osmolality is measured by freezing point depression |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Amount of water intake at breakfast | Day 1 | To determine whether urinary osmolality is correlated to total water intake at breakfast |
| Total energy and nutrient intake | Day 1 | To determine whether urinary osmolality is correlated to nutrient and energy intake at breakfast. |
