Description
ANTOLDHIGHBP_ALL indicates whether the woman was told, during an antenatal visit, about high blood pressure as a sign of pregnancy complications.
ANTOLDHIGHBP_ALL consists of separate variables, covering the most recent birth (ANTOLDHIGHBP_01) and, in some cases, additional births, potentially up to the sixth-most-recent birth (i.e., ANTOLDHIGHBP_02, ANTOLDHIGHBP_03, ANTOLDHIGHBP_04, ANTOLDHIGHBP_05, and ANTOLDHIGHBP_06). For most surveys, this information was collected for only the most recent birth; exceptions are noted in the comparability section.
