Description

Definition
For women who gave birth in the last five years, DELUG2_ALL indicates whether, in response to an open-ended question, they reported a nursing aide gave delivery care for a recent birth. This response category is country-specific to Uganda.

DELUG2_ALL consists of a set of up to six separate variables, covering the most recent birth (DELUG2_01) up to the sixth-most-recent birth (i.e., DELUG2_02, DELUG2_03, DELUG2_04, DELUG2_05, and DELUG2_06) during the reference period prior to the survey. If DELUG2_ALL is included in a data extract, all these separate variables are included in a researcher's data file.
