Description

Definition

For women who gave birth in the last five years, ANCAREBF2_ALL indicates whether, in response to an open-ended question, they reported that a midwife gave antenatal care for a birth. This response category is country-specific to Burkina Faso.

ANCAREBF2_ALL consists of a set of up to six separate variables, covering the most recent birth (ANCAREBF2_01) up to the sixth-most-recent birth (i.e., ANCAREBF2_02, ANCAREBF2_03, ANCAREBF2_04, ANCAREBF2_05, and ANCAREBF2_06) during the reference period prior to the survey. If ANCAREBF2_ALL is included in a data extract, all these separate variables are included in a researcher's data file.

Some samples in the "ANCARE" series include multiple categories that can be consolidated into a single broad response. IPUMS-DHS uses supplemental programming to combine these responses in a standard variable, while also preserving the separate responses in country-specific variables.

ANCAREBF2_ALL is combined with ANCAREBF1_ALL (nurse) for the 1998 and 2010 Burkina Faso samples to make the standard variable ANCARENURM_ALL. IPUMS-DHS users interested in using ANCAREBF2_ALL are encouraged to review ANCARENURM_ALL for this more comprehensive response category.
