DELPPCHKBWHO_ALL
(M52_X)
Person who checked respondent's health after delivery
Description
For women who gave birth in the five years before the survey and who received a health check after delivering their child, DELPPCHKBWHO_ALL (M52_X) reports who conducted the their postpartum health check (for a recent birth). Response categories vary across samples. See Comparability.
DELPPCHKBWHO_ALL consists of a set of up to six separate variables, covering the most recent birth (DELPPCHKBWHO_01) up to the sixth-most-recent birth (i.e., DELPPCHKBWHO_02, DELPPCHKBWHO_03, DELPPCHKBWHO_04, DELPPCHKBWHO_05, and DELPPCHKBWHO_06) during the reference period prior to the survey. If DELPPCHKBWHO_ALL is included in a data extract, all these separate variables are included in a researcher's data file.

Comparability
Along with universe differences, the response categories for DELPPCHKBWHO_ALL vary across samples.
The harmonized coding categories in the IPUMS-DHS variable DELPPCHKBWHO_ALL were constructed to reflect the major and minor categories in the original DHS variable (M52_X). The major categories are:
- 1000: Health professionals
- 2000: Other person
The second, third, and fourth digits of DELPPCHKBWHO_ALL's codes distinguish between specific locations and provide detail present in only some samples.
When response categories include non-standard groupings, IPUMS-DHS codes those groupings as a sub-category under the most qualified of the group (e.g., "Nurse/midwife/LHV" (code "1230") is a sub-category of "Nurse/midwife" (code "1200")).
Surveys that collected information on who gave the health check for more than just the most recent birth are noted below.
Comparability - Standard DHS
DELPPCHKBWHO_ALL (M52_X) is included in Phase IV and VI of the standard DHS questionnaire.
Comparability — Egypt [top]
The 2000, 2003, and 2005 Egypt surveys collected this information for all births in the reference period.
Comparability — Myanmar [top]
The 2015 Myanmar survey includes women who delivered at a health facility and received a health check either before or after discharge. The related variable, DELPPCHKAWHO_ALL (M68_x), includes women who delivered away from a health facility and received a health check after delivery.
