The DHS Program, which manages registration and access for IPUMS DHS, is again reviewing new user applications and requests for expanded access from currently approved users.
ANVISNOTOP20_ALL
(ANVISNOTOP20_ALL)
Topcoded number of antenatal visits
ANVISTOP20_ALL variables are 2-digit variables.
See ANVISNOTOP20_01 for the codes for these variables.
Description
For women who gave birth in the three to five years before the survey, ANVISNOTOP20_ALL reports the number of antenatal visits, topcoded at 20+ visits. Women who did not see anyone for antenatal care during the pregnancy are coded 0. The related variables for ANVISNO_ALL supply the same material without imposing a consistent topcode.
ANVISNOTOP20_ALL consists of a set of six separate variables, covering the most recent birth (ANVISNOTOP20_01) up to the sixth-most-recent birth (i.e., ANVISNOTOP20_02, ANVISNOTOP20_03, ANVISNOTOP20_04, ANVISNOTOP20_05, and ANVISNOTOP20_06) during the reference period prior to the survey. If ANVISNOTOP20_ALL is included in a data extract, all these separate variables are included in a researcher's data file.
For many surveys, particularly those taken after 2000, this information was collected for only the most recent birth (ANVISNOTOP20_01) and, in some cases, the second-most-recent birth (ANVISNOTOP20_02). Surveys in which the data were collected for only the most recent birth are noted in the comparability section.
For other surveys, information for this variable was collected on all births, up to a maximum of six, in the reference period; exceptions in which data were collected on only the most recent birth(s) are noted in the comparability section. In many cases, data were hypothetically collected on up to six births, but no women in the survey had so many births (e.g., no woman had 4 or more births in 3 years, or had 5 or 6 births in 5 years). If, for example, no woman in a survey had 6 births in five years and only blank values were included in the original DHS file, then ANVISNOTOP20_06 would not be available for that survey in IPUMS-DHS.
Comparability
Apart from universe differences and slight differences in question wording, ANVISNOTOP20_ALL has no comparability problems. Many samples imposed a topcode of 20+ visits in the original data; others imposed a topcode of 30+ visits or no topcode at all. For the full detail for all samples, see the related variables for ANVISNO_ALL.
Samples in which the information for ANVISTOP20_ALL was collected for only the most recent births (last birth and, in some cases, second-to-last birth) are noted below.
Comparability - Standard DHS
ANVISNO_ALL is included in the standard DHS questionnaire for Phase 2 forward.
