Description

Definition

For women who gave birth in the last five years, DELNG2_ALL indicates whether, in response to an open-ended question, they reported an auxiliary midwife/community health assistant gave delivery care for a recent birth. This response category is country-specific to Nigeria.

DELNG2_ALL consists of a set of up to six separate variables, covering the most recent birth (DELNG2_01) up to the sixth-most-recent birth (i.e., DELNG2_02, DELNG2_03, DELNG2_04, DELNG2_05, and DELNG2_06) during the reference period prior to the survey. If DELNG2_ALL is included in a data extract, all these separate variables are included in a researcher's data file.
