Description

Definition

For women who gave birth in the last three to five years, ANCAREUR_ALL (M42D_x) indicates whether a urine sample was taken at least once during antenatal care.

ANCAREUR_ALL consists of a set of up to six separate variables, covering the most recent birth (ANCAREUR_01) up to, potentially, the sixth-most-recent birth (i.e., ANCAREUR_02, ANCAREUR_03, ANCAREUR_04, ANCAREUR_05, and ANCAREUR_06) during the reference period prior to the survey. If ANCAREUR_ALL is included in a data extract, all these separate variables are included in a researcher's data file.

For most surveys, this information on taking a urine sample during pregnancy was collected for only the most recent birth (ANCAREUR_01). Surveys in which the data were collected for additional births are noted in the comparability section.
