Hello there,

I am working with the NFHS - 2 (1998-1999) dataset for India.

For the National Family Health Survey for Bihar 1998-1999. I got a question regarding the appendices located here:

http://www.rchiips.org/nfhs/data/bh/bhappab.pdf

I was wondering how the estimates were created for:

1. Had diarrhoea in past 2 weeks (Children under age 3 years)
2. Treated with ORS (Children under age 3 with diarrhoea in past 2 weeks)
3. Taken to a health facility/provider for diarrhoea (Children under age 3 with diarrhoea in past 2 weeks)

Also is the variables used to create the indicator for the percentage with ARI taken to a health facility or provider on Table 6.17 in the India National Family Health Survey 1998-1999 (NFHS-2) the same as point 3 above.

Thanks
