Population

Long-term hemodialysis patients

Intervention

Blood pressure monitoring (specifically out-of-dialysis) and antihypertensive therapy

Outcome

Cardiovascular morbidity and mortalityhard clinical

Out-of-dialysis blood pressure monitoring is recommended to better evaluate cardiovascular risk and optimize hypertension management in hemodialysis patients, highlighting the need for RCTs to define optimal BP targets.
