However, ABPM has some lim...

End-organ damage associated with hypertension is more closely related to ambulatory blood pressure (ABP) than clinic or casual blood pressure measurements. ABP measurements give better prediction of clinical outcome than clinic or casual blood pressure measurements. The technique of ABP monitoring (ABPM) is specialised; validated monitors and appropriate quality control measures should be used....

Conventional clinic measurement of blood pressure is influenced by many factors that make the technique unsuitable for the assessment of antihypertensive drug efficacy. The major drawback of conventional measurement is that it cannot indicate the duration of drug effect or the influence of antihypertensive drugs on nocturnal blood pressure. Noninvasive 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure measurem...
