Does ambulatory blood pressure monitoring improve the assessment of antihypertensive therapy efficacy compared to clinic measurement in patients with hypertension?
Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring is an essential tool for diagnosing hypertension phenotypes and accurately assessing the efficacy, duration, and homogeneity of antihypertensive treatments.
Alejandro de la Sierra (2015) conducted a review in Hypertension. Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) vs. Clinic blood pressure measurement was evaluated. Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring provides superior prognostic information and enables more precise assessment of antihypertensive therapy efficacy compared to clinic blood pressure measurement.
