Description
Definition
For young children with a fever or cough in the past 2 weeks, FEVTRNGO indicates, in response to an open-ended question, whether the child received treatment from some non-governmental organization (NGO) for this illness.
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, such as FEVTRNGO, while preserving the separate responses in country-specific variables.
For example, a given sample might include multiple categories for different types of NGOs that could be combined to create a more comprehensive response category. See Comparability for more information on the specific categories combined in this variable.
Additionally, a few samples ask separately about treatment given for fever and treatment given for cough. IPUMS-DHS uses supplemental programming to combine these responses in a standard variable while preserving the separate responses in composite coding. A first digit of 1 indicates the child received treatment from a given source, and the second digit indicates the child's illness. A code of "11" indicates the child received treatment for a fever; a code of "12" indicates the child received treatment for a cough; a code of "13" indicates the child received treatment for a fever or a cough; a code of "14" indicates the child received treatment for both a fever and a cough; a code of "15" indicates the child received treatment for a cough and convulsions; a code of "16" indicates the child received treatment for convulsions; a code of "17" indicates the child received treatment for a fever or rapid/difficult breathing. See Comparability for more information.
