Description

Definition
For women who gave birth in the last five years, DELPK3_ALL indicates whether, in response to an open-ended question, they reported a family welfare worker gave delivery care for a recent birth. This response category is country-specific to Pakistan.

DELPK3_ALL consists of a set of up to six separate variables, covering the most recent birth (DELPK3_01) up to the sixth-most-recent birth (i.e., DELPK3_02, DELPK3_03, DELPK3_04, DELPK3_05, and DELPK3_06) during the reference period prior to the survey. If DELPK3_ALL is included in a data extract, all these separate variables are included in a researcher's data file.
