Clinical value of ambulatory blood pressure monitoring.
This report reviews the evidence for and against clinical use of ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) on a large scale. Such monitoring is supported by a number of data, among which is that the end-organ damage associated with hypertension correlates more with 24-h average blood pressure than with clinic blood pressure, the correlation becoming even closer with addition of blood pressure...
متن کاملPrognostic value of ambulatory blood pressure recordings in patients with treated hypertension.
BACKGROUND It is uncertain whether ambulatory blood-pressure measurements recorded for 24 hours in patients with treated hypertension predict cardiovascular events independently of blood-pressure measurements obtained in the physician's office and other cardiovascular risk factors. METHODS We assessed the association between base-line ambulatory blood pressures in treated patients and subsequ...
متن کاملPrognostic value of ambulatory blood pressure : current evidence and clinical implications.
This article is a critical review of the available evidence on the prognostic value of ambulatory blood pressure (ABP). Several event-based cohort studies have shown that ABP improves cardiovascular risk stratification over and beyond traditional risk factors, including office BP. Most of these studies have been conducted in subjects with essential hypertension who were untreated at the time of...
متن کاملPrognostic value of 48-hour ambulatory blood pressure measurement and cardiovascular mortality in hemodialysis patients.
BACKGROUND Hypertension is common and contributes to high cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in hemodialysis (HD) patients. It is unknown which blood pressure (BP) better defines the influence on cardiovascular mortality. The purpose of our study was to analyze the relationship between various BP measurements, traditional risk factors, markers of asymptomatic atherosclerosis [left ventricul...
متن کاملCompared with whom? Addressing the prognostic value of ambulatory blood pressure categories.
and referred cohorts of hypertensive patients,5,6 ambulatory blood pressure (BP) proved superior to clinic BP for prediction of the risk of major cardiovascular events and mortality. These studies analyzed ambulatory BP as a continuous variable.1–6 However, for risk stratification and management of patients, clinicians need operational thresholds, which, by definition, are somewhat arbitrary. I...
