5 Foreword The availability of new technologies that enable blood pressure to be measured and recorded continuously or repetitively during prolonged observation periods has created exciting opportunities for studying the physiology of blood pressure regulation and the characteristics of clinical hypertension. Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring has been based on three types of approach. The first of these has utilized an intra-arterial catheter that allows blood pressure to be measured directly and continuously during a full 24-hour period. The second approach is based on non-invasive techniques, and utilizes devices capable of automatically inflating conventional arm cuffs and recording blood pressures at pre-set intervals throughout the day. The third, and most simple method, has depended upon semiautomated techniques that require the subject to inflate a cuff at convenient intervals during the period of observation. During the last few years, concerted research into these differing techniques has exposed their strengths and shortcomings. Overall, however, there has been a growing perception that these approaches to the measurement of blood pressure might add considerably to the information obtained in the doctor's office by the traditional single or casual reading. This book summarizes the state of the art in ambulatory blood pressure monitoring. We have divided the subject matter into three main areas: the available technologies for measuring and recording blood pressure; the use of these techniques for better understanding the physiology and characteristics of blood pressure; and the present state of our experience in employing these techniques for diagnosing and assessing therapy in patients with clinical hypertension. We believe that these innovative approaches for documenting normal and abnormal blood pressure patterns have now become critical components of clinical research studies. Moreover, the evaluation of the single patient by long-term monitoring may soon become part of the physician's diagnostic armamentarium. This book takes its origins from an international symposium on blood pressure monitoring held recently in Newport Beach under the auspices of the Hypertension Center of the Veterans Administration Medical Center, Long Beach, and the University of California, Irvine. We hope that it will provide a broad background to the subject as well as provide practical clinical and technical guidance. Acknowledgements We gratefully acknowledge the assistance we received from Ginger Paselk in the planning of the meeting and the handling of the manuscripts. In addition, we are grateful to Deborah Brewer and Eleanor Chard, who were most active in the organization of the meeting. Finally, we would like to thank Bruce Del Mar and Mama Schnabel for their financial contribution to the meeting. v
