Description

Definition

For children with a fever or cough in the past 2 weeks, FEVTRBD5 indicates, in response to an open-ended question, whether the child received treatment from some "other" nongovernmental organization (NGO) source. 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, FEVTRBD5 is combined with FEVTRBD1 (NGO static clinic), FEVTRBD2 (NGO satellite clinic), FEVTRBD3 (NGO fieldworker), and FEVTRBD4 (NGO depot holder) in FEVTRNGO (all nongovernmental organizations). Additionally, in the 2007 Bangladesh sample, FEVTRBD5 is combined with FEVTRBD1, FEVTRBD2, and FEVTRBD3.

IPUMS-DHS users interested in using FEVTRBD5 are encouraged to review FEVTRNGO for a more comprehensive response category.
