TL;DR: An operational threshold for making clinical decisions based on ambulatory blood pressure (ABP) measurement is delineated by studying the ABP in subjects who were diagnosed as either normotensive or hypertensive by conventional blood pressure measurement.
Journal ArticleDOI
Orthostatic hypotension is a more robust predictor of cardiovascular events than nighttime reverse dipping in elderly
Robert Fagard,Paul De Cort +1 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that orthostatic hypotension contributes to the phenomenon of reverse dipping but is a more robust predictor of cardiovascular events than reverse dipping in the elderly of the current study.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In older patients with ISH, clinic and ambulatory systolic blood pressure measurements may differ largely: the prognostic significance of this difference remains to be elucidated; in these patients the level of pressure is more reproducible by daytime ambulatory blood pressure measurement than by clinic measurement.
