Description

Definition
For women who gave birth in the last three to five years, ANCAREZW1_ALL indicates whether, in response to an open-ended question, they reported that a traditional birth attendant with unknown training gave antenatal care for a birth. This response category is country-specific to Zimbabwe.

ANCAREZW1_ALL consists of a set of up to six separate variables, covering the most recent birth (ANCAREZW1_01) up to the sixth-most-recent birth (i.e., ANCAREZW1_02, ANCAREZW1_03, ANCAREZW1_04, ANCAREZW1_05, and ANCAREZW1_06) during the reference period prior to the survey. If ANCAREZW1_ALL is included in a data extract, all these separate variables are included in a researcher's data file.
