Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring

Journal of Hypertension, 1996
PREDICTIVE VALUE OF 24-H AMBULATORY BLOOD PRESSURE MONITORING: Average 24-h blood pressure values are more closely related to the target-organ damage of hypertension than are clinic blood pressure readings. Preliminary evidence from longitudinal studies suggests that ambulatory blood pressure is also superior to isolated clinic readings in the ...

Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring

Current Hypertension Reports, 2000
Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) is becoming widely accepted as a clinically useful tool for assessing cardiovascular risk in hypertensive patients, although it is not generally recognized for reimbursement in the United States. There are now six major prospective studies, all of which have shown that ABPM gives a better prediction of risk ...

Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring

Pharmacology & Therapeutics, 1994
Non-invasive measurement of blood pressure in ambulatory humans began in the 1960s. Ambulatory devices have been modified over the years and are now pocket-sized, with almost noiseless pumps. Their accuracy must be validated by independent laboratories using a standardised protocol.

Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring

Southern Medical Journal, 2003
Noninvasive, 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) has evolved over the past 25 years from a novel research tool of limited clinical use into an important and useful modality for stratifying cardiovascular risk and guiding therapeutic decisions.

Ambulatory blood pressure and prognosis

Journal of Hypertension, 1994
PROGNOSTIC INFORMATION: Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring provides three kinds of information, all of which might have prognostic significance: blood pressure level, amplitude of diurnal variation and short-term variability. BLOOD PRESSURE LEVEL: Existing data support the hypothesis that patients whose ambulatory blood pressure is low in comparison ...

Ambulatory Monitoring Of Blood Pressure

Hospital Practice, 1991
When ambulatory monitoring results differ from office values it is very likely that the ambulatory readings more accurately reflect patient status. Thus, a determination of 24-hour antihypertensive control and comparison of the efficacy of drug regimens can help to prevent undertreatment as well as overtreatment.

Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring: mean blood pressure and blood pressure load

Pediatric Nephrology, 2005
Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) is commonly used to diagnose pediatric hypertension. Using ABPM, hypertension is usually defined as a mean BP greater than the 95th percentile for height. A BP load >30% (% of BP readings greater than the 95th percentile) is also used for the diagnosis of hypertension.

Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring

Medical Journal of Australia, 2002
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.

Blood pressure variability of two ambulatory blood pressure monitors

Blood Pressure Monitoring, 2014
There are no data on the evaluation of blood pressure (BP) variability comparing two ambulatory blood pressure monitoring monitors worn at the same time. Hence, this study was carried out to compare variability of BP in healthy untreated adults using two ambulatory BP monitors worn at the same time over an 8-h period.An Accutorr device was used to ...

Ambulatory blood pressure variability

Blood Pressure Monitoring, 2017
Ambulatory blood pressure (ABP) has long been recognized by researchers as the gold standard of blood pressure (BP) measurement. Researchers and clinicians typically rely on the mean measure of ABP; however, there is considerable variability in the beat-to-beat BP.
