Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring

Drugs, 1992
This paper reviews the evidence that, in patients with hypertension, end-organ damage correlates more closely with blood pressure values obtained by ambulatory blood pressure monitoring than with those obtained by conventional sphygmomanometry. However, ambulatory blood pressure monitoring is not suitable for routine use in the clinical setting because

Diagnostic Thresholds for Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring Based on 10-Year Cardiovascular Risk

Circulation, 2007
Current diagnostic thresholds for ambulatory blood pressure (ABP) mainly rely on statistical parameters derived from reference populations. We determined an outcome-driven reference frame for ABP measurement.

Normality of ambulatory blood pressure

Blood Pressure Monitoring, 1999
An operational threshold for making clinical decision on the basis of ambulatory blood pressure monitoring must be defined. This requires that the relationship between the ambulatory pressure and the incidence of cardiovascular complications be clarified beyond present understanding.

Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring

Current Opinion in Nephrology and Hypertension, 1993
During the past decade, ambulatory blood pressure monitoring has risen rapidly as a diagnostic technique used in clinical research trials and, more recently, in clinical practice. Blood pressure monitors have become smaller, technologically improved, and quiet during recordings--all features that have increased patient compliance. During the past year,

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 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 measurements

Current Opinion in Pediatrics, 2001
Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) has emerged as a valuable clinical and research tool in the assessment of pediatric hypertension. Large databases of 24-hour blood pressure monitorings in healthy children are under development for establishing normal reference values analogous to the Task Force data for casual blood pressure. In the clinical

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

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 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 ...
