I am having some difficulty trying to replicate the percentage of children with ARI taken to the health facility for under 5s in the Niger 2006 and 2012 DHS. I have used the Guide to DHS statistics and my results still do not match the values in StatCompiler.

In terms of the numerator: What variables in the Child Recode Dataset constitute the "health facility"

In terms of the denominator: What are the variables will help me determine which children have ARI

Just to note, I am using Stata and I have already set it up for a weighted analysis
