Description

Definition
For women who gave birth in the last five years, DELMW1_ALL indicates whether, in response to an open-ended question, they reported a clinical officer/medical assistant gave delivery care for a recent birth. This response category is country-specific to Malawi.

DELMW1_ALL consists of a set of up to six separate variables, covering the most recent birth (DELMW1_01) up to the sixth-most-recent birth (i.e., DELMW1_02, DELMW1_03, DELMW1_04, DELMW1_05, and DELMW1_06) during the reference period prior to the survey. If DELMW1_ALL is included in a data extract, all these separate variables are included in a researcher's data file.
