Home Blood Pressure Compared With Office Blood Pressure in Relation to Dysglycemia
Abstract Background Masked hypertension is more common in individuals with type 2 diabetes than in individuals with normoglycemia. We aimed to explore if there is a discrepancy between office blood pressure (office BP) and home blood pressure monitoring (HBPM) in relation to HbA1c as well as glycemic ...

Measurement of Blood Pressure in the Office [PDF]
To the Editor: The algorithm for office blood pressure recently proposed by Myers et al1 does not allow for the discernment of isolated clinic or masked hypertension. In a recent study we measured observed automated blood pressure (nurse present), unobserved automated blood pressure (3 readings at 3-minute intervals after 5 minutes of rest), and ...

A Novel Approach to Office Blood Pressure Measurement: 30-Minute Office Blood Pressure vs Daytime Ambulatory Blood Pressure [PDF]
Current office blood pressure measurement (OBPM) is often not executed according to guidelines and cannot prevent the white-coat effect. Serial, automated, oscillometric OBPM has the potential to overcome both these problems. We therefore developed a 30-minute OBPM method that we compared with daytime ambulatory blood pressure.Patients referred to a ...

Purpose Although 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure measurement (24-h ABPM) is the most important method to establish true hypertension, in clinical practice often repeated automated office blood pressure (AOBP) measurements are used because of ...

Background It is most important to measure blood pressure (BP) exactly in treating hypertension. Recent recommendations for diagnosing hypertension clearly acknowledge that an increase in BP attributable to the “whitecoat response” is frequently ...

A Comparison of Office Blood Pressure, Telemedical Home Blood Pressure and Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring [PDF]
Background: Telemonitoring of home blood pressure (HBP) is a new advance in blood pressure monitoring. The aim of this study was to compare office blood pressure (OBP) and telemedical home blood pressure with daytime ambulatory blood pressure (ABP). Methods:
