Includes bibliographical references (leaves 44-58). Thirty years ago, oral rehydration therapy (ORT) was hailed as potentially the most significant medical advance of the century. Dehydration from diarrhoea killed approximately 5 million children per year in the late 1970's. ORT is a simple and inexpensive means of treating diarrhoeal dehydration. Today 25% of the world's children have access to ORT, and it is estimated that every year it saves 500,000 lives (Drucker 1988). 2015-01-10T06:34:40Z 2015-01-10T06:34:40Z 2009 Master Thesis Masters MMed http://hdl.handle.net/11427/11849 eng application/pdf Division of Emergency Medicine Faculty of Health Sciences University of Cape Town |
