0 = No
1 = Yes
9 = NIU (not in universe)
Description
ANCARECORD_ALL indicates whether the female respondent was given information or advice about umbilical cord care during an antenatal care visit.
ANCARECORD_ALL consists of separate variables, covering the most recent birth (ANCARECORD_01) and, in some cases, additional births, potentially up to the sixth-most-recent birth (i.e., ANCARECORD_02, ANCARECORD_03, ANCARECORD_04, ANCARECORD_05, and ANCARECORD_06). For most surveys, this information was collected for only the most recent birth; exceptions are noted in the comparability section.
