24-hour Ambulatory BP Monitoring and Home BP Measurements in Resistant Hypertension

  • Chapter
  • First Online:

Abstract

Out-of-office BP measurements, ambulatory BP monitoring (ABPM), and self-BP measurement play an important role in the evaluation of resistant hypertension. In fact 24 h ABPM has been considered mandatory at the time to evaluate resistant hypertension from the beginning of clinical use. Furthermore, clinical research has expanded the potential role of out-of-office measurements not only to the initial evaluation of resistant hypertension but also to refine cardiovascular and renal risk stratification and for a better follow-up. The widespread use of self-BP measurement at home introduced a new tool to properly assess out-of-office BP, and it has also been recommended in these patients although the potential differences between the two methods remain controversial.
