Overview

Supports standardized home BP protocols in practice; leaves open need for prospective outcome trials.

Structured PICO

P
Population
Patients with hypertension or individuals undergoing screening for hypertension
I
Intervention
Self-measured blood pressure at home using arm-cuff devices based on the cuff-oscillometric method
C
Comparator
Casual-clinic blood pressure (CBP)
O
Outcome
Accuracy of screening for hypertension, assessment of blood pressure control during treatment, and drug compliance

Home blood pressure monitoring, when performed under standardized conditions using validated arm-cuff devices, provides reproducible data essential for the accurate diagnosis and management of hypertension.
