Over the past years epidemiological studies have shown that the KAP in use of ORS had direct relation to management of diarrhea less than 5years of age children by their mothers.

Some mothers 5.7% (17 out of 300) do labor work on agriculture as they don't have sufficient land for themselves.

Around 70% of mothers get ORS from FCHV, 24% of mothers get it from SHP or HP. 6% of them are getting it from Private clinics and 92% of them get it for free whereas remaining 8 % pay less than Rs 15 to get it. Similarly all the respondents are washing their hands before ORS preparation and also utensils, which they know are for more prevention. This shows all respondents have the knowledge to wash hands before its preparation, Around 98% (293 out of 300) know the correct way of preparation whereas only 2% have wrong practices on the preparation of ORS. Only 46% of the respondents continued breastfeeding during diarrhea. A majority of 85% used toilet in this research and for those who don't have toilet majority go to river side for the exretion. More than 80% of respondents know the cause of diarrhea as well as more than 80% knows it's preventable. Zinc supplementation is used by only 26% of respondents for diarrhea.
