Description

Definition

DELPROBP_ALL indicates whether, in response to an open-ended question about delivery complications, the woman reported experiencing high blood pressure.

DELPROBP_ALL consists of a set of six separate variables, covering the most recent birth (DELPROBP_01) up to the sixth-most-recent birth (i.e., DELPROBP_02, DELPROBP_03, DELPROBP_04, DELPROBP_05, and DELPROBP_06) during the reference period prior to the survey. If DELPROBP_ALL is included in a data extract, all these separate variables are included in a researcher's data file.
