Description

Definition
For women who gave birth in the last three to five years, ANCAREBP_ALL (M42C_x) indicates whether blood pressure was taken at least once during antenatal care.

ANCAREBP_ALL consists of separate variables, covering the most recent birth (ANCAREBP_01) and, in some cases, additional births, up to, potentially, the sixth-most-recent birth (i.e., ANCAREBP_02, ANCAREBP_03, ANCAREBP_04, ANCAREBP_05, and ANCAREBP_6). For most surveys, this information on checking blood pressure during pregnancy was collected for only the most recent birth; exceptions are noted in the comparability section.
