Description

For women who gave birth in the last five years, DELTZ4_ALL indicates whether, in response to an open-ended question, they reported a clinical officer gave delivery care for a recent birth. This response category is country-specific to Tanzania.

DELTZ4_ALL consists of a set of up to six separate variables, covering the most recent birth (DELTZ4_01) up to the sixth-most-recent birth (i.e., DELTZ4_02, DELTZ4_03, DELTZ4_04, DELTZ4_05, and DELTZ4_06) during the reference period prior to the survey. If DELTZ4_ALL is included in a data extract, all these separate variables are included in a researcher's data file.

Comparability

DELTZ4_ALL has no comparability problems.
