Description

Definition
For surviving children under age 5 who had diarrhea in the past 2 weeks, DIAGIVNASO indicates, in response to an open-ended question, whether the child was given a nasogastric tube to treat this illness. This narrow plastic tube inserted through the nose and throat and into the stomach can administer food or medicine.
