Why is treatment sometimes done earlier than the payment?
When a case is urgent and vital, hospitals often proceed with delivering medical care right away to save a life, even before the finalisation of admission procedures. Usually, when this happens, hospitals put the bill on our credit until the funds are transferred to their accounts. That’s why the chronology can sometimes be in disorder.

About severe malaria and gastroenteritis
Severe malaria is a life-threatening parasitic infection caused predominantly by Plasmodium falciparum. In infants, it commonly presents with persistent high fever, marked weakness, poor feeding, vomiting, anaemia etc. Gastroenteritis is an inflammatory condition of the gastrointestinal tract, usually caused by viral, bacterial, or parasitic pathogens. It is characterized by frequent loose or watery stools, vomiting, abdominal discomfort, fever, and dehydration. In infants, fluid loss can happen rapidly, resulting in dehydration, electrolyte imbalance, and nutritional compromise.

Upon being able to tolerate oral medications, he was later treated with antimalarial suspension, zinc and other medications.

Prognosis
The coexistence of severe malaria and gastroenteritis in an 11-month-old infant significantly increases the risk of dehydration, electrolyte disturbances, hypoglycaemia, and worsening clinical condition. The combination requires urgent medical attention. The prognosis is guarded at presentation because both severe malaria and gastroenteritis can be life-threatening in infants. However, with early diagnosis, prompt treatment and careful monitoring, the prognosis is generally good, and full recovery is expected in most cases. Delayed treatment or severe complications may worsen the outcome.
