Description

Definition
For children with diarrhea in the past 2 weeks, DIATRNE3 indicates, in response to an open-ended question, whether the child received treatment from a public district hospital. This response category is country-specific to Niger.

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.

DIATRNE3 is combined with DIATRNE1 (Public national hospital) and DIATRNE2 (Public regional hospital) in DIATRPUBHOS (all public hospitals) for the 2012 Niger sample. IPUMS-DHS users interested in using DIATRNE3 are encouraged to review DIATRPUBHOS for a more comprehensive response category.
