Description

Definition
ANCARECD1 indicates whether a nurse gave the child's mother antenatal care while the child was in utero. This response category is country-specific to the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

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.

ANCARECD1 is combined with ANCARECD2 (midwife) for the 2007 and 2013 Democratic Republic of the Congo samples to create the standard variable ANCARENURM (nurse/midwife). IPUMS-DHS users interested in using ANCARECD1 are encouraged to review ANCARENURM for this more comprehensive response category.
