Description
DELPPCHKBBD7_ALL indicates whether, in response to an open-ended question, the woman reported she received a health check from a traditional doctor after delivering her child. This variable is country-specific to Bangladesh.
DELPPCHKBBD7_ALL consists of a set of six separate variables, covering the most recent birth (DELPPCHKBBD7_01) up to the sixth-most-recent birth (i.e., DELPPCHKBBD7_02, DELPPCHKBBD7_03, DELPPCHKBBD7_04, DELPPCHKBBD7_05, and DELPPCHKBBD7_06) during the reference period prior to the survey. If DELPPCHKBBD7_ALL is included in a data extract, all these separate variables are included in a researcher's data file.
