Ambulatory blood-pressure monitoring.
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 than conventional clinic measurement. A coro...
متن کاملAmbulatory blood pressure monitoring.
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. The technique of ABP monitoring (ABPM) is specialised; validated monitors and appropriate quality control measures should be used....

IN this issue Pickering and Harshfield review the use of invasive and noninvasive arterial blood pressure monitoring in ambulant humans. Their review is well balanced and comprehensive but is limited to the discussion of patients with hypertension. Although it is true that the Framingham Study, the Hypertension Detection and Follow-up Program, and the insurance industry data all show the powerf...
متن کاملIntracranial pressure monitoring.
Recent studies have demonstrated that bedside cranial burr hole and insertion of intraparenchymal catheters for intracranial pressure monitoring performed by intensive care physicians is a safe procedure, with a complication rate comparable to other series published by neurosurgeons. The overall morbidity rate is comparable to, or even lower than, that caused by central vein catheterization. Th...
متن کاملIntracranial pressure monitoring.
Brain injury is the result of both primary and secondary damage, yielded by a complex range of factors including ischemia, biochemical changes and inflammatory cascade. Secondary brain injury may be caused by systemic or intracranial mechanisms including oligaemia due to low cerebral perfusion pressure (CPP) or increased cerebral vascular resistance (vascular distortion or cerebro-vascular narr...
