Description
DELTRANFROM_ALL reports the location that the female respondent left to reach the health facility for the child's delivery.
DELTRANFROM_ALL consists of a set of up to six separate variables, covering the most recent birth (DELTRANFROM_01) up to the sixth-most-recent birth (i.e., DELTRANFROM_02, DELTRANFROM_03, DELTRANFROM_04, DELTRANFROM_05, and DELTRANFROM_06) during the reference period prior to the survey. If DELTRANFROM_ALL is included in a data extract, all these separate variables are included in a researcher's data file.
