Interviewer instructions
We want to know if and what type of oral rehydration solution (ORS) the child took during the last episode of diarrhoea.

Ask each question separately: “Was (name) given a fluid made from a special packet called (local name for ORS packet solution)?, Was (name) given a pre-packaged ORS fluid for diarrhoea?” and so forth. Read each item aloud and circle the code corresponding to the response before proceeding to the next item.
