Description

DELPPCHKBNP2_ALL indicates whether, in response to an open-ended question, the woman reported she received a health check from some other health person after delivering her child. The meaning of "other" must be interpreted relative to the specific categories included in a particular sample. This response category is country-specific to Nepal.

DELPPCHKBNP2_ALL consists of a set of six separate variables, covering the most recent birth (DELPPCHKBNP2_01) up to the sixth-most-recent birth (i.e., DELPPCHKBNP2_02, DELPPCHKBNP2_03, DELPPCHKBNP2_04, DELPPCHKBNP2_05, and DELPPCHKBNP2_06) during the reference period prior to the survey. If DELPPCHKBNP2_ALL is included in a data extract, all these separate variables are included in a researcher's data file.
