Following is a response from Senior DHS staff member, Tom Pullum:

In the Bangladesh 2017-18 survey, the blood pressure measurements are in the PR file (BDPR7RFL.dta). They are among the variables with names that begin with "sb3".

In general, to find the blood pressure variables, it usually works to open the data file and enter "lookfor pressure" or "lookfor systolic".
