Description

Definition
DELPPCHKBNURM_ALL indicates whether, in response to an open-ended question, the woman reported she received a health check from a nurse or midwife after delivering her child.

DELPPCHKBNURM_ALL consists of a set of six separate variables, covering the most recent birth (DELPPCHKBNURM_01) up to the sixth-most-recent birth (i.e., DELPPCHKBNURM_02, DELPPCHKBNURM_03, DELPPCHKBNURM_04, DELPPCHKBNURM_05, and DELPPCHKBNURM_06) during the reference period prior to the survey. If DELPPCHKBNURM_ALL is included in a data extract, all these separate variables are included in a researcher's data file.
