Abstract

To investigate the value of home blood pressure (BP) measurements, the BP was recorded daily by the patient at home and compared with recordings in the physician's office and with a 24-hour BP recording taken with a noninvasive ambulatory BP recorder in a group of 93 patients with mild untreated hypertension. Office BPs (mean 148/94 mm Hg) were higher than either home (138/89 mm Hg) or average 24-hour BPs (131/89 mm Hg). For systolic BP, home and office measurements gave similar correlations with 24-hour BP (0.67 and 0.55). For diastolic BP, however, home readings were lower and more accurate (0.76 vs 0.36). Thus, our findings indicate that home readings reflect the overall level of BP more reliably than office readings, and if due consideration is given to the fact that they are usually lower than office readings, they may be used as an alternative and cost-effective means of evaluating patients with mild hypertension.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
