Conditions
Brief summary
Blood pressure measurements by three methods Office Blood Pressure Measurement (OBPM), Automated Office Blood Pressure Measurement (AOBPM), and Home Blood Pressure Measurement (HBPM) were collected retrospectively across three visits for patients (N=28) referred to a specialty hypertension (HTN) clinic. Demographic data were analyzed using summary statistics. The differences between AOBPM, HBPM, and OBPM were examined using mixed models repeated measures analysis for time and method for each visit.
Interventions
DEVICEBlood pressure measurement device
The use of three different devices: traditional office blood pressure measurement cuff (OBPM), automated office blood pressure measurement cuff (AOBPM), and home blood pressure measurement cuff (HBPM).
