Ambulatory BP Monitoring

Ambulatory BP Monitoring tracks blood pressure repeatedly over 24 hours during routine activity and sleep, helping detect sustained hypertension, white coat hypertension, masked hypertension, and treatment gaps.

What Ambulatory BP Monitoring Evaluates

• Measures blood pressure at regular intervals through daytime and night-time.

• Shows how readings vary with activity, rest, stress, and sleep.

• Helps identify masked hypertension, white coat hypertension, and uncontrolled BP.

• Provides more reliable patterns for treatment planning than a single clinic reading.

When Ambulatory BP Monitoring Is Recommended

• Borderline or fluctuating clinic blood pressure readings.

• Suspected white coat hypertension or masked hypertension.

• Poor BP control despite medication or symptoms such as headache and dizziness.

• Need to assess night-time blood pressure or response to current therapy.

Who May Benefit From Ambulatory BP Monitoring

• Patients newly diagnosed with hypertension.

• People with diabetes, kidney disease, or high cardiovascular risk.

• Patients on BP medicines who need dose adjustment based on real-life readings.

• Individuals whose home and clinic blood pressure values do not match.

Benefits of Ambulatory BP Monitoring

• Improves the accuracy of hypertension diagnosis.

• Supports safer medication timing and dose decisions.

• Helps prevent unnecessary treatment or missed treatment.

• Gives clearer long-term monitoring for heart and stroke risk.
