Description

Definition

For women who gave birth in the last five years, DELRW5_ALL indicates whether, in response to an open-ended question, they reported a traditional healer gave delivery care for a recent birth. This response category is country-specific to Rwanda.

DELRW5_ALL consists of a set of up to six separate variables, covering the most recent birth (DELRW5_01) up to the sixth-most-recent birth (i.e., DELRW5_02, DELRW5_03, DELRW5_04, DELRW5_05, and DELRW5_06) during the reference period prior to the survey. If DELRW5_ALL is included in a data extract, all these separate variables are included in a researcher's data file.
