Blood pressure circadian rhythm in essential hypertension.
1. Both systolic and diastolic blood pressure show a well defined circadian variation in ambulatory hypertensive subjects. 2. Blood pressure is highest in the mid-morning (10.00 hours) and lowest during sleep at 03.00 hours. 3. Treatment with oxprenolol (taken during the day) reduces daytime blood pressure but is less effective during the night and early morning.
متن کاملProfile analysis of 24-hours measurements of blood pressure.
A method is proposed for classifying subjects according to their convex, flat, or concave change patterns of 24-hours blood pressure measurements. To obtain such a classification is useful for detecting subjects who show abnormal change patterns and giving them appropriate medical treatments. Therefore, an appropriate statistic is proposed for detecting a systematic change along the time axis, ...
متن کاملAmbulatory blood pressure monitoring: Is 24 hours necessary?
BACKGROUND The variability of blood pressure (BP) makes any single measurement a poor indicator of a patient's true BP. Multiple studies have confirmed the superiority of ambulatory BP measurements over clinic BP measurements in predicting cardiovascular risk; however, this method presents the problem of patient acceptance as it causes frequent arm discomfort and sleep disturbance. We hypothesi...
متن کاملStatistical base value of 24-hour blood pressure distribution in patients with essential hypertension.
The purpose of this study was to calculate statistically the minimum (base) blood pressure (BP) of nighttime (sleep-time) BP values obtained by ambulatory BP monitoring (ABPM) and to investigate its clinical significance. Twenty-four-hour recording of ECG with ABPM was performed directly (n=89) or indirectly (n=117) in 206 patients with essential hypertension. A telemeter was used for the direc...
متن کاملRelation of 24-h ambulatory blood pressure with plasma potassium in essential hypertension.
The established associations between blood pressure (BP) and electrolytes are mostly based on either dietary intake or urinary excretion data. We measured office BP, ambulatory BP (ABP) using the automated oscillometric ABPM-630 device, and plasma electrolytes in 82 essential hypertensive patients to examine the relation between BP and plasma electrolytes. Significant negative correlations were...
