Self-reported high blood pressure prevalence may be underestimated by surveys due to misclassification of health status by participants. Ignoring misclassification may lead to inaccurate inference. We aimed to assess a feasibility of correcting misclassification bias in self-reported high blood pressure in the Portuguese component of the European Health Interview Survey (INS2014) using data on objective blood pressure measurements from a smaller health examination survey survey (INSEF2015).engBiasSelf-reportBlood PressureDeterminantes da Saúde e da DoençaEstados de Saúde e de DoençaINSEFInquérito Nacional de Saúde com Exame FísicoPortugalBias correction in self-reported high blood pressure prevalence based on objectively measured dataconference object10.1093/eurpub/ckaa166.1318
