\title{Studies on the Effectiveness of Different Rehydration Solutions for the Prevention of Unscheduled Intravenous Infusion in Children with Diarrhoea}
\description{Results from 12 trials examining the effectiveness of a reduced versus standard rehydration solution for the prevention of unscheduled intravenous infusion in children with diarrhoea.}
\usage{
dat.hahn2001
}
\format{The data frame contains the following columns:
\tabular{lll}{
\bold{study} \tab \code{character} \tab trial name and year \cr
\bold{ai} \tab \code{numeric} \tab number of children requiring unscheduled intravenous infusion in the reduced rehydration solution group \cr
\bold{n1i} \tab \code{numeric} \tab number of children in the reduced rehydration solution group \cr
\bold{ci} \tab \code{numeric} \tab number of children requiring unscheduled intravenous infusion in the standard rehydration solution group \cr
\bold{n2i} \tab \code{numeric} \tab number of children in the standard rehydration solution group
}
}
\details{
The dataset includes the results from 12 randomized clinical trials that examined the effectiveness of a reduced osmolarity oral rehydration solution (total osmolarity <250 mmol/l with reduced sodium) with a standard WHO oral rehydration solution (sodium 90 mmol/l, glucose 111mmol/l, total osmolarity 311 mmol/l) for the prevention of unscheduled intravenous infusion in children with diarrhoea.
