When to use and how to interpret ambulatory blood pressure monitoring findings.
Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) is a noninvasive diagnostic method performed for 24-48 hours, along with daily activities and during sleep, thus being highly useful in cases where the need of antihypertensive medication should be evaluated, in patients with suspected white coat hypertension, noctural hypertension, hypertension resistant to combined therapy, and those with borderline hypertension. ABPM helps in the evaluation of the prescribed therapy effects, hypotension, autonomic dysfunction, hypertension in pregnancy, in the elderly and type 1 diabetics, as well as in elucidation of syncopal states and "accidental" hypertension. With appropriate use of ABPM the optimal therapeutic effect can be achieved and the risk of arterial hypertension sequels assessed.
