Does HP LC-MS/MS urine analysis identify non-adherence to antihypertensive treatment in patients with suboptimal blood pressure control?
HP LC-MS/MS urine analysis may be a useful tool to exclude non-adherence in patients with suboptimal blood pressure control prior to further interventions like renal denervation.
Non-adherence to blood pressure lowering therapy is common, particularly in patients with suboptimal blood pressure control and those referred for renal denervation. HP LC-MS/MS urine analysis could be used to exclude non-adherence and better stratify further investigations and intervention.
Tomaszewski et al. (2014) studied this question.
