Description

Definition
For children with diarrhea in the past 2 weeks, DIATRMM2 indicates whether the child received treatment from Myanmar Red Cross. This response category is country-specific to Myanmar.

Some samples in the "DIATR" series include multiple categories that can be consolidated into a single broad response. IPUMS-DHS uses supplemental programming to combine these responses in a standard variable, while also preserving the separate responses in country-specific variables.

DIATRMM2 is combined with DIATRMM1 (Marie Stopes International), DIATRMM3 (Population Services International/Myanmar [PSI/M]), DIATRMM4 (Myanmar Medical Association), and DIATRMM5 (other NGO) in DIATRNGO (all NGOs) for the 2015 Myanmar sample. IPUMS-DHS users interested in using DIATRMM2 are encouraged to review DIATRNGO for a more comprehensive response category.
