I am analyzing the blood pressure data and have extracted already from DHS 2016. As the DHS 2022 is already available, I also want to include it in the analysis but lost to find it. Could any one to find the right file and name of column for this dataset. Thank you

Kind regards
Bipin

Following is a response from DHS staff member, Tom Pullum:
The easiest way to find the blood pressure measurements, if they are included in a survey, is to open the IR file and enter "lookfor systolic". If you do this for the Nepal 2022 DHS survey, you will see a group of variables with the prefix "wbp" for women and another group with the prefix "mbp" for men.
