Let me refer you to three sources:
1) Dr SK Sharif, Provincial Medical Officer, Coast Province, Kenya.
He has been pursuing this issue for some time.
(Email: SKSharif@users.africaonline.co.ke or
SKSharif@ken.healthnet.org)
2) Dr. A. Wasunna or Mr. D. Yach at WHO, Geneva, where a working group
has recently been looking at technologies for health -- new, overused,
underused. (Email: wasunnaa@who.ch and yachd@who.ch )
3) A recent article on oxygen-concentrators, the reference for which I
cannot locate now (perhaps The Lancet, 1996) -- a copy of which would be
available from Dr Wasunna or Mr Yach or through Index Medicus search.
Breath well,
Jono Quick
