Key result
Office blood pressure measurement was the most acceptable method (mean score 1.95), followed by home (2.20), home-night (2.74), and ambulatory monitoring (3.11) (P<0.001 for all comparisons).

Are novel home and home-night blood pressure measurement methods more acceptable than traditional office and ambulatory monitoring in a general population sample?
p-value: p=<0.001
Office and home blood pressure measurements are significantly more acceptable to patients than home-night and 24-hour ambulatory monitoring.
Lindroos et al. (2015) reported a cross-sectional. Blood pressure measurement methods (office, home, home-night, ambulatory) was evaluated on Mean acceptability score (p=<0.001). Office blood pressure measurement was the most acceptable method (mean score 1.95), followed by home (2.20), home-night (2.74), and ambulatory monitoring (3.11) (P<0.001 for all comparisons).
