Abstract:
A survey of 115 health centres in five governorates provided morbidity figures for acute respiratory infections (ARI) from 75,789 records. The findings give an estimate of antibiotic requirements, including dosage forms for young children, and help evaluate the performance of individual health centres and the entire ARI programme.
