Description

FSCAUSOTH indicates whether the woman reported some other cause of fistula, in response to an open-ended question about the causes of death. The meaning of "other" depends on the specific causes of fistula included in a sample.

When children are chosen as the unit of analysis, the woman respondent indicates the mother of the child.

Comparability

Despite universe differences and slight differences in question wording, FSCAUSOTH is largely comparable across samples.
