Abstract:
Office blood pressure has been regarded as a gold standard of blood pressure measurements.It is an important indicator of ensurement of correct diagnosis,management of condition and evaluation of prognosis.But limitations of office blood pressure have led to the increasing use of out-of-office blood pressure.Many evidence show that out-of-office blood pressure could more accurately reflex variability of blood pressure and rhythm of blood pressure.Out-of-office blood pressure could diagnose white-coat hypertensives or masked hypertensives without delay,properly determine the need for antihypertensive treatment and decrease risk of developing blood pressure-related complications.
