Description

Definition
DELINJLABORWHY_ALL reports what (if anything) the respondent was told about why she received an injection or medicine from an IV drip while in labor.

DELINJLABORWHY_ALL consists of a set of up to six separate variables, covering the most recent birth (DELINJLABORWHY_01) up to, potentially, the sixth-most-recent birth (i.e., DELINJLABORWHY_02, DELINJLABORWHY_03, DELINJLABORWHY_04, DELINJLABORWHY_05, and DELINJLABORWHY_06) during the reference period prior to the survey. If DELINJLABORWHY_ALL is included in a data extract, all these separate variables are included in a researcher's data file.
