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.

Hypertension and Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring

Primary Care: Clinics in Office Practice, 1991
Advancing technology will develop lighter, less expensive, more compatible, and more reliable ambulatory blood pressure recording devices, which will result in an increased use of the procedure in clinical practice. Future longitudinal prospective studies of normotensive and hypertensive subjects may authenticate the relationship between ambulatory ...

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 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 in Pediatrics

Current Hypertension Reports, 2019
This is a review of ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) use in pediatrics, summarizing current knowledge and uses of ABPM.Updated guidelines from the American Academy of Pediatrics have emphasized the value of ABPM. ABPM is necessary to diagnose white coat hypertension, masked hypertension, and nocturnal hypertension associated with specific ...

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.

Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring in Pregnancy

Obstetrical & Gynecological Survey, 1998
Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy remain a major cause of maternal and perinatal morbidity and mortality. Diagnosis and management of these disorders has relied on conventional blood pressure measurement, a technique fraught with error and uncertainty.

Blood pressure variability and ambulatory monitoring

Current Opinion in Nephrology and Hypertension, 1993
The inherent variability of blood pressure means that the accuracy of a small number of clinic readings in estimating the true blood pressure is limited. In many patients, a clinic visit provokes an increase in blood pressure such that they may be misclassified as being hypertensive (white coat hypertension). This applies to about 20% of hypertensives.

Reliability of ambulatory blood pressure monitoring

Blood Pressure Monitoring, 2001
To focus on the reliability of ambulatory blood pressure monitoring and on its limitations in clinical practice, and to construct adequate strategies to improve ambulatory monitoring performance.The literature was reviewed, and personal data were used.Since the beginning of non-invasive ambulatory blood pressure monitoring, it appeared that some ...
