Hi DHS team, I have a question regarding the calculation of perinatal mortality (stillbirths and early neonatal deaths) and neonatal mortality.

I had planned to use the IR data file for Guatemala and reshape the data. Using this codehttps:// userforum.dhsprogram.com/index.php?t=msg&th=4692&got o=8646&#msg_8646 I was able to calculate number of stillbirths.

In order to calculate the early neonatal deaths and neonatal mortality, can I continue to use the IR data file or do I have to switch to the BR data file. If anyone could direct me towards a code to calculate perinatal morality and neonatal mortality through the IR data file, I would appreciate the support.

Thank you!
Madeline
