Description

For women who gave birth in the five years before the survey, PNBABCKTRBA_ALL indicates whether, in response to an open-ended question, the child's postpartum health check was performed by a trained traditional birth attendant.

PNBABCKTRBA_ALL consists of a set of up to six separate variables, covering the most recent birth (PNBABCKTRBA_01) up to the sixth-most-recent birth (i.e., PNBABCKTRBA_02, PNBABCKTRBA_03, PNBABCKTRBA_04, PNBABCKTRBA_05, and PNBABCKTRBA_06) during the reference period prior to the survey. If PNBABCKTRBA_ALL is included in a data extract, all these separate variables are included in a researcher's data file.
