Description
For women who gave birth in the last 5 years, ANCARECGOBD7_ALL indicates whether, in response to an open-ended question, they reported receiving care for pregnancy complications at an NGO satellite clinic. This response category is country-specific to Bangladesh.
ANCARECGOBD7_ALL consists of a set of up to six separate variables, covering the most recent birth (ANCARECGOBD7_01) up to the sixth-most-recent birth (i.e., ANCARECGOBD7_02, ANCARECGOBD7_03, ANCARECGOBD7_04, ANCARECGOBD7_05, and ANCARECGOBD7_06) during the reference period prior to the survey. If ANCARECGOBD7_ALL is included in a data extract, all these separate variables are included in a researcher's data file.
Some samples in the "ANCARECGO" series include categories that can be consolidated into a single response. IPUMS-DHS uses supplemental programming to combine these responses in a standard variable while preserving the separate responses in country-specific variables.
ANCARECGOBD7_ALL is combined with ANCARECGOBD6_ALL (NGO static clinic) and ANCARECGOBD8_ALL (other NGO) in ANCARECGONGO_ALL (all NGOs) for the 2007 Bangladesh samples. IPUMS-DHS users interested in using ANCARECGOBD7_ALL are encouraged to review ANCARECGONGO_ALL for a more comprehensive response category.
