Comparability - Standard DHS

DIAGIVORS (H13) is included in the Standard DHS questionnaire for Phase 2 forward.

In Phase 2, the affirmative response split into two categories, distinguishing between spontaneous and probed responses. The respondent is first asked, "What was given to treat the diarrhea?" If ORS fluid from a packet was not mentioned, the respondent was then asked, "Was (NAME) given (FLUID FROM ORS PACKET - LOCAL NAME) when he/she had the diarrhea?"

Beginning in Phase 3, the question changed to, "When (NAME) had diarrhea, was he/she given any of the following to drink: A fluid made from a special packet called [LOCAL NAME]?" Based on the standard wording in Phases 3 through 7, all affirmative responses are probed, rather than spontaneous.
