Description

Definition
HLTHPROGNP17 indicates whether the respondent has seen or listened to the media program Navimalam in the past few months. This variable is country-specific to Nepal.

Navimalam, or chlorhexidine, is applied to umbilical cords to avoid infection. A government program designed to scale up the use of this drug was started in October 2011 in an effort to reduce neonatal mortality. Use of "Navi" was promoted through radio and television public service announcements in Nepal.
