Definition
For young children with a fever or cough in the past 2 weeks, FEVTRBF4 indicates, in response to an open-ended question, whether the child received treatment at a primary health post for this illness. This response category is country-specific to Burkina Faso.
Some samples in the "FEVTR" series include categories that can be consolidated into a single response. IPUMS-DHS uses supplemental programming to combine these responses in a standard variable while preserving the separate responses in country-specific variables.
FEVTRBF4 is combined with FEVTRBF3 (public health post) in FEVTRPUBHP (all public health posts) for the 1993 Burkina Faso sample. IPUMS-DHS users interested in using FEVTRBF4 are encouraged to review FEVTRPUBHP for a more comprehensive response category.
