Description

Definition
For children with a fever or cough in the past 2 weeks, FEVTRBD3 indicates, in response to an open-ended question, whether the child received treatment from a nongovernmental organization (NGO) fieldworker. This response category is country-specific to Bangladesh.

Some samples in the "FEVTR" 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.

For the 2011 and 2014 Bangladesh samples, FEVTRBD3 is combined with FEVTRBD1 (NGO static clinic), FEVTRBD2 (NGO satellite clinic), FEVTRBD4 (NGO depot holder), and FEVTRBD5 (Other NGO) in FEVTRNGO (all nongovernmental organizations).

Additionally, in the 2007 Bangladesh sample, FEVTRBD3 is combined with FEVTRBD1, FEVTRBD2, and FEVTRBD5; for the 2000 and 2004 Bangladesh samples, FEVTRBD3 is combined with FEVTRBD1 and FEVTRBD2 in FEVTRNGO.

IPUMS-DHS users interested in using FEVTRBD3 are encouraged to review FEVTRNGO for a more comprehensive response category.
