The Information and Communications Technologies (ICTs) revolution and its ability to affect all areas of human activity has been producing complex changes in the healthcare sector, highlighting the expansion of Decision Support Systems (DSS), especially those developed for mobile devices. Even with its continental dimensions, Brazil is a country that still suffers with limited internet access. Still, it is possible to provide an environment where applications installed on mobile devices allow access to documents with informative content in a more viable, fast and economical way, in order to provide information to health professionals who work in the first care for children with dehydration. In this context, DSSs have been standing out in a positive way, as to assist these professionals in decision making processes. Based on this assumption, one of the areas that needs decision support is in the management of child dehydration, which is still an important cause of child mortality in the country, especially in the North and Northeast regions. Thus, a DSS can be an important support for physicians and nurses who work in the first care of children with dehydration, both in the classification of their severity as well as in the automatic calculation of hydroelectrolytic replacement, especially with children, where variables in relation to weight and age interfere. Therefore, this project has the objective of developing a DSS to support decision making on the management of child dehydration in first care, based on the AIDPI (Integrated Attention to Childhood Prevalent Diseases) strategy
