Description

Definition
DELMISOPROSTOL_ALL indicates whether the respondent received any misoprostol tablets to reduce bleeding after delivering her child.

DELMISOPROSTOL_ALL consists of a set of up to six separate variables, covering the most recent birth (DELMISOPROSTOL_01) up to, potentially, the sixth-most-recent birth (i.e., DELMISOPROSTOL_02, DELMISOPROSTOL_03, DELMISOPROSTOL_04, DELMISOPROSTOL_05, and DELMISOPROSTOL_06) during the reference period prior to the survey. If DELMISOPROSTOL_ALL is included in a data extract, all these separate variables are included in a researcher's data file.
