Why the study?
Does benazepril reduce blood pressure in patients with type II diabetes mellitus and mild hypertension when assessed by casual versus ambulatory monitoring?
Does benazepril reduce blood pressure in patients with type II diabetes mellitus and mild hypertension when assessed by casual versus ambulatory monitoring?
Whole-day ambulatory blood pressure monitoring identifies a substantial number of type II diabetic patients with nonconfirmed hypertension, in whom casual BP measurements may overestimate the antihypertensive efficacy of treatment.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
May overestimate benazepril effects by casual BP in nonconfirmed hypertension; leaves open need for ambulatory confirmation in type 2 diabetes.
Puig et al. (1995) studied this question.
