Dear User, A response by senior research analyst, Dr. Lindsay Mallick,
Quote:

The Bangladesh 2007 questionnaire did not include a separate category for paramedic. Rather, the question reads,
"Who assisted with the delivery of (NAME)?"

And the response options are:

Health personnel qual. Doctor..........A
Nurse/Midwife/Paramedic................B
Family Welfare Visitor.........................C
Community Skilled Birth Attendant...D

Therefore, you will not be able to tease out births delivered by a paramedic. The second column in table 9.7 is then calculated using m3b (nurse/midwife/paramedic) and m3d (FWV).



Thank you!
