home blood pressure; kidney transplant recipient; number of days
Abstract :
[en] Office blood pressure (OBP) coupled with 24-h ambulatory monitoring (24-h ABPM) or home self-monitoring (HBPM) allow a more accurate assessment of BP control in treated hypertensive patients and identification of different phenotypes of BP. ESH/ESC guidelines (2013) recommended 7 days of home measurements (3 days at least) but that duration is questioned.
The present study examined if we can reduce, and to what extent, the 7-days schedule for home measurements in treated hypertensive kidney transplant recipients (ktr) while keeping a reliable assessment of their BP status?
