Description

Definition
For women who have received an injection from a health professional in the last 6 to 12 months, INJNEWNEDL (V480) reports whether the person who gave them their last injection used a syringe and needle from a new, unopened package.

There is some variation in how the "person who gave the last injection" is described. See Comparability.
