IS in young children can usually be managed using non-invasive methods, such as hydrostatic saline reduction (HSR), and surgery is generally reserved for cases in which non-invasive methods have failed. This study was conducted as part of a larger multicenter IS surveillance study. The objective of this analysis was to identify clinical and demographic factors associated with failed HSR in children hospitalized with IS.<h4>Methods</h4>In this observational study, children aged < 2 y hospitalized with IS confirmed according to the Brighton Collaboration criteria at a tertiary care center in Kerala were enrolled after obtaining parental informed consent. Children who underwent spontaneous reduction were excluded. Enrolled children were followed up until discharge.<h4>Results</h4>Of the 137 children who underwent HSR, 131 (95.6%) procedures were successful. HSR failed in six children (4.4%), and they required surgery; however, there were no deaths. The factors associated with failed HSR included low socioeconomic status [83% (5/6) vs. 32.1% (42/131); p = 0.042], a left-sided mass detected on ultrasonography [50% (3/6) vs. 6.9% (9/131); p = 0.004], and longer time from admission to the procedure (median: 5.5 vs. 3 h; p = 0.005).<h4>Conclusions</h4>This study demonstrates the importance of early HSR and exercising caution when a left-sided mass is detected on ultrasonography.
