Self‐measurement of blood pressure at home: Is it reliable?

Blood Pressure, 2008
Self-measurement of blood pressure (BP) at home is more common than 10 years ago and encouraged by current guidelines to increase patient adherence to treatment and reach the goal of target BP. The aims of this study are to evaluate the accuracy of home sphygmomanometers and to investigate behavior/knowledge of the sphygmomanometer owners.

Reproducibility of blood pressure variability assessed by home blood pressure monitoring

Current Medical Research and Opinion

This study aimed to address this gap. We compared HBPM-derived BPV at two time points using three metrics [standard deviation (SDVar), coefficient of ...
