Following is a response from DHS staff member, Tom Pullum:
For women in the IR file, it is recommended that you use the body mass index, v445. That's what is reported in the final report on the NFHS-5. I too do not see variables for the HAZ, WAZ, and WHZ for women in the IR file.
For children, the HAZ, WAZ, and WHZ are given in the PR file as hc70, hc71, hc72, respectively, and in the KR file as hw70, hw71, hw72, respectively. They include a factor of 100 and have high values (listed below) that should be excluded.
. label list HW70
HW70:
9996 height out of plausible limits
9997 age in days out of plausible limits
9998 flagged cases
