Target Blood Pressure Values in Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

2018 ESC/ESH guidelines have recommended 24-h ambulatory blood pressure monitoring to assess hypotensive therapy in many circumstances. Recommended target blood pressure in office blood pressure measurements is between 120/70 and 130/80 mmHg. Such targets for 24-h ambulatory blood pressure monitoring lacks.

Aim

We aimed to define target values of blood pressure in 24-h ambulatory blood pressure monitoring in hypertensive patients.

Methods

Office blood pressure measurements and 24-h ambulatory blood pressure monitoring data were collected from 1313 hypertensive patients and sorted following increasing systolic (SBP)/diastolic (DBP) blood pressure in office blood pressure measurements. The corresponding 24-h ambulatory blood pressure monitoring to office bl
