Why the study?
How does the prevalence of ambulatory hypertension change over time in children and young adults after kidney transplantation followed by ABPM?
How does the prevalence of ambulatory hypertension change over time in children and young adults after kidney transplantation followed by ABPM?
In young kidney transplant recipients, the prevalence of ambulatory hypertension decreases over time due to improved blood pressure control.
Supports better BP control over time in young transplant recipients; hypothesis-generating and should not yet change practice.
In young kidney transplant recipients followed by ABPM, the prevalence of ambulatory hypertension decreases over time, mainly due to the increased number of patients with controlled hypertension.
