I have currently conducting an analysis on neonatal mortality in Pakistan. Could anyone guide me as to how I can determine whether there were any complications present during delivery? Would greatly appreciate it!

Following is a response from DHS Senior Research Associate, Lindsay Mallick:

We do not collect any information about complications during delivery. In the 2017-18 Pakistan DHS, we asked about caesarean sections and the timing of when the decision to conduct a C-section was made.
