White coat effect and white coat hypertension in pediatric patients

Pediatric Nephrology, 2002
We evaluated the prevalence of white coat (WC) effect in pediatric age patients and that of white coat hypertension (WCH) in hypertensive pediatric patients. Two hundred and six patients (136 normotensive and 70 hypertensive patients, 107 boys and 99 girls, aged 6-25 years, mean 13.4, SD 4.7) were studied.

`Reverse white-coat hypertension’ in older hypertensives [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Hypertension, 2002
The role of ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) in the elderly is unclear. This study has examined differences between clinic and ambulatory blood pressure (BP) in a large cohort of older hypertensives, with particular respect to the factors influencing the direction and magnitude of this difference.The Second Australian National Blood Pressure

White coat hypertension

Current Opinion in Nephrology and Hypertension, 1996
Several recent studies of white coat hypertension have confirmed that it occurs in 20% or more of the hypertensive population. White coat hypertension appears to be a low-risk condition because it is associated with little or no organ damage, and is not usually associated with the metabolic abnormalities characteristic of sustained hypertension, such ...

White-coat hypertension

Clinical and Experimental Pharmacology and Physiology, 2013
1. Numerous studies have examined whether white-coat hypertension (WCHT) is associated with increased cardiovascular risk, but with definitions of WCHT that were not sufficiently robust, results have been inconsistent. The aim of the present review was to standardize the evidence by only including studies that used a definition of WCHT consistent with ...

To the Editor. —I read with considerable interest the article by Pickering et al1entitled "How Common is White Coat Hypertension?" in the Jan 8 issue ofJAMA. The well-known phenomenon that the authors describe must be taken into consideration before starting a lifetime management program for patients whose blood pressures are elevated in a medical ...

White-coat hypertension in adults

Blood Pressure Monitoring, 2005
White-coat hypertension is defined by the coexistence of persistently high office blood pressure (BP) with normal self-measured or ambulatory blood pressure. The prognostic impact of white-coat hypertension is a subject of debate. Cardiovascular morbidity seems to be lower in white-coat hypertension than in ambulatory hypertension, and, according to ...

Persistent White Coat Hypertension

American Journal of Hypertension, 1994
Serial observations of clinic and ambulatory blood pressure monitoring are presented for a 60-year-old woman whose arterial blood pressure was unaffected by removal of a functioning parathyroid adenoma. A pattern of "white coat hypertension" first detected 8 years ago remains unchanged to the present.

White-coat hypertension and cardiovascular risk

Journal of Cardiovascular Risk, 1995
To compare cardiovascular risk in white-coat hypertensives, normotensives and established hypertensives.We studied 61 hypertensive individuals, 27 of whom were white-coat hypertensives, and 35 normotensives. All subjects underwent 24 h noninvasive blood pressure monitoring and Doppler echocardiographic examination of the heart; urine was tested for ...
