Interviewer instructions
If you learn in CA5 that the child was given something to treat the episode of diarrhoea, ask CA6 to identify what the mother or anyone else may have given the child. After recording a treatment, ask the respondent whether “Anything else” was given, but do so without implying that something else should have been given. Record all treatments given. Write brand name(s) of all medicines mentioned. Antimotility means anti-diarrhoea. Make the difference between antibiotic and non antibiotic treatment. If the mother/care taker doesn't know ask to see the package of the medicine.
