Early prognostic value of nocturnal blood pressure: A single-centre experience

Blood Pressure Monitoring May 01, 2019

Fabbian F, et al. - In this prospective study that included hypertensive patients who had undergone 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) from January 2016 to November 2017, researchers evaluated short-term results, comorbidity, and ABPM findings. The main outcome measures included major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), which consisted of new episodes of myocardial infarction and stroke requiring hospitalization during follow-up. A follow-up of 518±120 days was carried out, during which time 1,521 ABPM values were analyzed and 33 MACE were documented. The factors that were related independently to MACE included age, night-time blood pressure, and diabetes mellitus. In aged patients with diabetes, night-time blood pressure was identified as an important parameter to assess in order to predict MACE.
