Description
Definition
For young children with a fever or cough in the past 2 weeks, FEVTRGH1 indicates, in response to an open-ended question, whether the child received treatment at a private pharmacy for this illness. This response category is country-specific to Ghana.
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.
FEVTRGH1 is combined with FEVTRGH2 (private chemical/drug store) in FEVTRPRIVDRUG (all private, formal drug sources) for the 2014 Ghana sample. IPUMS-DHS users interested in using FEVTRGH1 are encouraged to review FEVTRPRIVDRUG for a more comprehensive response category.
