Definition
For children with a fever or cough in the past 2 weeks, FEVTRMM1 indicates whether the child received treatment from Marie Stopes International, a non-governmental organization (NGO) that provides contraception and safe abortion to women in urban and rural communities. This response category is country-specific to Myanmar.
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.
FEVTRMM1 is combined with FEVTRMM2 (Myanmar Red Cross), FEVTRMM3 (Population Services International/Myanmar [PSI/M]), FEVTRMM4 (Myanmar Medical Association), and FEVTRMM5 (other NGO) in FEVTRNGO (all NGOs) for the 2015 Myanmar sample. IPUMS-DHS users interested in using FEVTRMM1 are encouraged to review FEVTRNGO for a more comprehensive response category.
