Diurnal variations in blood pressure: importance of ambulatory BP monitoring.
Fig. 1 : (a) Showing normal diurnal pattern in a normal person. Night time is shown as dark on time scale. SBP as well as DBP dip at night. (b) Showing inadequate nocturnal dip in a person with normal day time BP. (c) Showing nocturnal hypertension in a person with only transient episodes of hypertension during day. Fig. 2 : (a) Showing normal day time BP with over dipping at night. SBP falling...
متن کاملAmbulatory blood pressure measurement: a trove of hidden gems?
One of the consequences of hypertension is increasing stiffness of the arteries, which leads to cardiovascular events and increased mortality.1 Clearly this process is a continuous one and, contrary to acceptance that such change is inevitable, it is not now unreasonable to assume that if stiffening in the arterial system could be detected at an early rather than at a late stage, therapeutic in...
متن کاملHigher Blood Pressure Variability in White Coat Hypertension; from the Korean Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring Registry
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Blood pressure variability (BPV) was recently shown to be a risk factor of stroke. White coat hypertension (WCH) used to be regarded as innocuous, but one long-term follow-up study reported that WCH increased stroke rate compared to normotension (NT). In this study, we aimed to evaluate the relationship between WCH and BPV. SUBJECTS AND METHODS We analyzed 1398 subje...
متن کاملEstimation of blood pressure variability from 24-hour ambulatory finger blood pressure.
Portapres is a noninvasive, beat-to-beat finger blood pressure (BP) monitor that has been shown to accurately estimate 24-hour intra-arterial BP at normal and high BPs. However, no information is available on the ability of this device to accurately track ambulatory BP variability. In 20 ambulatory normotensive and hypertensive subjects, we measured 24-hour BP by Portapres and through a brachia...
متن کاملVariability of circadian blood pressure profile during 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring in hypertensive patients.
BACKGROUND Evaluation of circadian blood pressure (BP) profile is an important element of ambulatory BP monitoring (ABPM). Abnormal nocturnal fall in BP is more common in patients with secondary causes of hypertension and in the elderly. Cardiovascular risk is substantially increased in these patients. AIM Analysis of circadian BP profile in a population of treated hypertensives and identific...
