Description
For persons ages 18 and older who have confirmed diabetes and who have had amputations of all or part of both legs, DIAMPUT2EV reports whether the person's amputation on his or her second leg was of his or her toe, foot, leg, or part of a leg.
This question is complementary to AMPUT2EV, which was asked of sample adults who do not have confirmed diabetes who have had amputations of all or part of both legs. For information on the other leg with an amputation, please see DIAMPUTEV and AMPUTEV.
This variable is included in the 1989 Diabetes supplement. For related variables, please use the IPUMS NHIS search function and drop-down menus.
