Description

For women who gave birth in the last five years, DELRW4_ALL indicates whether, in response to an open-ended question, they reported a Community Health Mother and Child worker gave delivery care for a recent birth. This response category is country-specific to Rwanda.

DELRW4_ALL consists of a set of up to six separate variables, covering the most recent birth (DELRW4_01) up to the sixth-most-recent birth (i.e., DELRW4_02, DELRW4_03, DELRW4_04, DELRW4_05, and DELRW4_06) during the reference period prior to the survey. If DELRW4_ALL is included in a data extract, all these separate variables are included in a researcher's data file.

DELRW4_ALL has no comparability problems.
