P-46: Blood pressure variability correlates with target organ damage in white-coat hypertension

Blood pressure (BP) variability carries prognostic significance in essential hypertension. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of BP variability regarding target organ damage in white-coat hypertension. We studied 1345 consecutive patients with documented white-coat hypertension...

Zusammenfassung:Blood pressure (BP) variability carries prognostic significance in essential hypertension. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of BP variability regarding target organ damage in white-coat hypertension. We studied 1345 consecutive patients with documented white-coat hypertension (average value of three different office BP measurements one week apart >140mmHg systolic and/or >90mmHg diastolic combined with mean daytime BP < 135mmHg systolic and
