Following is a response from DHS Research & Data Analysis Director, Tom Pullum:

The cluster, household, and line number are all you need to identify individuals in any of the data files. For example, in the PR file they are given by hv001, hv002, and hvidx. In the IR file they are given by v001, v002, and v003. You can do a merge (there are actually alternatives) to attach the blood sample results to the right individuals.
