Description
For women who gave birth in the last three to five years, PPVITA_ALL (M54_x) indicates whether they received a vitamin A dose in first 2 months after delivery.
PPVITA_ALL consists of a set of up to six separate variables, covering the most recent birth (PPVITA_01) up to, potentially, the sixth-most-recent birth (i.e., PPVITA_02, PPVITA_03, PPVITA_04, PPVITA_05, and PPVITA_06) during the reference period prior to the survey. If PPVITA_ALL is included in a data extract, all these separate variables are included in a researcher's data file.
For most surveys, this information was collected for only the most recent birth (PPVITA_01). Surveys in which the data were collected for additional births are noted in the comparability section.

Comparability
Apart from universe differences, PPVITA_01 (M54_1) is largely comparable across samples. Most surveys collected this information on the most recent birth only; exceptions are noted below.
Comparability - Standard DHS
PPVITA _01 is included in the standard DHS questionnaire for Phases IV through VI.
Comparability — Egypt [top]
The 2014 Egypt survey collected this information for the most recent birth only; the 2000, 2003, 2005, and 2008 Egypt surveys collected this information for additional births.
Comparability — Ghana [top]
The Ghana 2003, 2008, and 2014 surveys collected this information for the most recent birth only; the 1998 Ghana survey collected this information for additional births.
The 1998 Ghana survey asks whether the woman received a vitamin A dose in the first six weeks after delivery (for the last birth).
Comparability — Zambia [top]
The 2001 Zambia survey asks whether the woman received a vitamin A dose in the first one month after delivery (for the last birth).
