Description
For women who gave birth in the 5 years before the survey and whose child had a health check before discharge from the place of delivery, PNBABCKBTM_ALL reports the amount of time that passed before the child's first health check.
PNBABCKBTM_ALL consists of a set of six separate variables, covering the most recent birth (PNBABCKBTM_01) up to the sixth-most-recent birth (i.e., PNBABCKBTM_02, PNBABCKBTM_03, PNBABCKBTM_04, PNBABCKBTM_05, and PNBABCKBTM_06) during the reference period prior to the survey. If PNBABCKBTM_ALL is included in a data extract, all these separate variables are included in a researcher's data file.
See the related variable PNBABCKB_ALL for more information.
This variable differs from the similar variable PNBABCKTM_ALL in that PNBABCKBTM_ALL is specifically about checkups before discharge from a medical facility, whereas PNBABCKTM_ALL reports the amount of time that passed before the baby's health checkup irrespective of discharge from a medical facility.
The related variable PNBABCKDISTM_ALL reports the amount of time that passed before the baby's health checkup after discharge from a medical facility.
