The boy was released from the newborn nursery yesterday and was solely nursing until the beginning of symptoms. While he was in the newborn nursery, his stool and urine production were typical. The patient is awake and normal in blood pressure, but tachycardic and tachypneic. He seems dehydrated, with a swollen belly. During the examination, the patient vomits, and the vomitus is depicted in the display.
