Comparability

Whether a response category is considered skilled is based on the specific country's interpretation that survey year, based on the groupings on the questionnaire. For some samples, more than one response category is incorporated into DELOTHSKILL.

For most samples, the most recent birth must have occurred within the last two years for delivery data to be recorded. For Sierra Leone 2017, the birth could have occurred within the last five years.
