Description
DELPRONONEED_ALL indicates whether, in response to an open-ended question, the woman reported she did not seek treatment for delivery complications because it was not necessary.
DELPRONONEED_ALL consists of a set of six separate variables, covering the most recent birth (DELPRONONEED_01) up to the sixth-most-recent birth (i.e., DELPRONONEED_02, DELPRONONEED_03, DELPRONONEED_04, DELPRONONEED_05, and DELPRONONEED_06) during the reference period prior to the survey. If DELPRONONEED_ALL is included in a data extract, all these separate variables are included in a researcher's data file.
