Description

Definition

For women who gave birth in the last five years, DELMG3_ALL indicates whether, in response to an open-ended question, they reported a nurse/midwife/medical assistant gave delivery care (for the last birth). This response category is country-specific to Madagascar.

DELMG3_ALL consists of a set of up to six separate variables, covering the most recent birth (DELMG3_01) up to the sixth-most-recent birth (i.e., DELMG3_02, DELMG3_03, DELMG3_04, DELMG3_05, and DELMG3_06) during the reference period prior to the survey. If DELMG3_ALL is included in a data extract, all these separate variables are included in a researcher's data file.
