Coverage:
Population base: Living children under age 5 years (KR file)
Time period: 2 weeks preceding the interview
Numerators:
1) Number of living children under 5 age years with diarrhea at any time during the 2 weeks preceding the interview for whom advice or treatment was sought from specific sources (b5 = 1 & b19 < 60 & h11 in 1,2 & h12a – h12x = 1)
2) Same as numerator 1
3) Number of living children under age 5 with diarrhea at any time during the 2 weeks preceding the interview who received ORS and for whom advice or treatment was sought from specific sources (b5 = 1 & b19 < 60 & h11 in 1,2 & (h13 in 1,2 or h13b = 1) & h12a – h12x = 1)
4) Number of living children under age 5 with diarrhea at any time during the 2 weeks preceding the interview who were given zinc and for whom advice or treatment was sought from specific sources (b5 = 1 & b19 < 60 & h11 in 1,2 & h15e = 1 & h12a – h12x = 1)
Denominators:
a) Number of living children under age 5 with diarrhea in the 2 weeks preceding the interview (b5 = 1 & b19 < 60 & h11 in 1,2)
b) Number of living children under age 5 with diarrhea in the 2 weeks preceding the interview for whom advice or treatment was sought (b5 = 1 & b19 < 60 & h11 in 1,2 & any of h12a – h12x = 1)
c) Number of living children under age 5 with diarrhea in the 2 weeks preceding the interview who received ORS (b5 = 1 & b19 < 60 & h11 in 1,2 & (h13 in 1,2 or h13b = 1))
d) Number of living children under age 5 with diarrhea in the 2 weeks preceding the interview who were given zinc (b5 = 1 & b19 < 60 & h11 in 1,2 & h15e = 1)

Numerator divided by the denominator, multiplied by 100.
Missing data or “don’t know” responses on the questions on whether the child had diarrhea are excluded from numerators and denominators, assuming no illness.
Missing data or “don’t know” responses for whether sought advice or treatment and from whom are excluded from numerators, assuming no treatment sought from a specific health facility or provider.
In contrast to the indicator Percentage of children under age 5 with symptoms of ARI, and among children under age 5 with symptoms of ARI, the percentage for whom advice or treatment was sought and for whom advice or treatment was sought the same or next day, these indicators include advice or treatment from a traditional practitioner.
In DHS-8, NGO medical sector was added as a separate source category. Previously, it was lumped in with private medical sector.
