Dear user,

The question "Have you ever had your blood pressure measured by a doctor or other health worker?" was administered to households selected for the non-communicable disease module among women age 30 and older, regardless if they have had a live birth in the last 5 years. This can be seen on page 504 of the final report. The question about blood pressure measurement during antenatal care was only asked of women about their most recent birth in the last 5 years. So there will be missing cases when you crosstab. Among women age 30+ selected for the NCD module who also had a live birth in the last 5 years (which looks to be about 905 unweighted cases) there will be discordant responses, unfortunately. That is an artifact of self-report or recall bias (non-sampling error).

Thank you,
Lindsay
