Dear DHS team,

I have seen many discussion about the Under-five mortality estimation in this forum but not sure which will be working fine to relate with the National report.

I would like to use India DHS stata data to estimate NNMR=Neonatal mortality rate,PNMR=Post-neonatal mortality rate,IMR=Infant mortality rate,CMR=Child mortality rate,U5MR=Under five mortality rate and using BR file.


I'm using this code in Stata and can anyone help me what I am missing here?

I've seen the reference from http://siteresources.worldbank.org/INTPAH/Resources/Publicat ions/459843-1195594469249/HealthEquityCh3.pdf and http://legacy.measuredhs.com/help/datasets/

gen hypage1=(v008-b3)
gen survivelength=.
replace survivelength=hypage1
replace survivelength=b7 if b5==0
gen dead=(b5==0)

ltable survivelength dead [fw=v005] if hypage1 <60 , int(0,1,3,6,12,24,36,48,60) failure



It would be appreciated if you can help me in this regards.

Thanks
Jayanta
