Description

Definition
For women who gave birth in the last three to five years, DELCI2_01 indicates whether, in response to an open-ended question, they reported a midwife gave delivery care (for the last birth). This response category is country-specific to Cote d'Ivoire.

Some samples in the "DEL" series include multiple categories that can be consolidated into a single broad response. IPUMS-DHS uses supplemental programming to combine these responses in a standard variable, while also preserving the separate responses in country-specific variables.

DELCI2_01 is combined with DELCI1_01 (nurse) for the 1994 and 1998 Cote d'Ivoire samples to create the standard variable DELNURM_01. IPUMS-DHS users interested in using DELCI2_01 are encouraged to review DELNURM_01 for this more comprehensive response category.
