Abstract
Home blood pressure measurement had a stronger predictive power for mortality than did screening blood pressure measurement for a general population. This appears to be the first study in which the prognostic significances of home and screening blood pressure measurements have been compared.

This data indicates that ambulatory blood pressure correlates more closely than clinic BP with the organ damage of hypertension and whether ABP predicts development or regression of hypertension-related morbidity and mortality is still under investigation.

Data from a large and unbiased sample of a general population show that home and 24 h or daytime average blood pressures are much lower than clinic blood pressure.
HypertensionWhat is the value of home blood pressure measurement in patients with mild hypertension?
300 Citations1984Hollis D. Kleinert, G A Harshfield +6 more
It is indicated that home readings reflect the overall level of BP more reliably than office readings, and if due consideration is given to the fact that they are usually lower than office reading, they may be used as an alternative and cost-effective means of evaluating patients with mild hypertension.
HypertensionThe reproducibility of average ambulatory, home, and clinic pressures.
253 Citations1988Gary D. James, Thomas G. Pickering +4 more
The reproducibility of ambulatory pressures may be as good or better than that of home or clinic measurements, and the average ambulatory pressure may be preferable as the measurement in clinical trials, since it may be less influenced by measurement anxiety, particularly in hypertensive subjects.

Evidence is examined on the roles of ambulatory and self-measurement devices in diagnosing and managing hypertension and whether these benefits would be sufficient to justify the expense and inconvenience of ambulanceatory blood pressure monitoring.

193 Citations1997Ichiro Tsuji
The results indicated that the predictive power of home BP level for subsequent mortality was stronger than that of casual screening BP, and the reference value for hypertension is 137/84 mm Hg, and normotension is below 137mm Hg for home systolic BP and between 66 and 83 mm HG for home diastolic BP.

Home blood pressure increased gradually with increasing age in both men and women, although blood pressure was significantly higher in men until 50 years of age, and day-to-day variation of home systolic blood pressure also increased with age.

125 Citations1989Yutaka Imai, Keishi Abe +8 more
The accuracy and reliability of blood pressure values were evaluated by comparing values obtained with eight automatic or semiautomatic devices designed for home BP measurement with those obtained by the auscultatory method, using a standard mercury sphygmomanometer, and practitioners should select the most appropriate method and/or device by taking into account the factors which may cause measurement error.

122 Citations1997Masashi Sakuma
The reproducibility of home blood pressure over time is superior to that of screening blood pressure, suggesting that the reliable blood pressure measurements obtained at home have a clinical significance for the diagnosis and treatment of hypertension and as a tool for evaluating the efficacy of antihypertensive drugs.

The present data stress the importance of home pressure measurements in the management of some patients with hypertension and provide evidence that casual office readings may sometimes misjudge the effectiveness of antihypertensive therapy.

Compared with office blood pressure measurement, home measurement provided significantly lower systolic and diastolic blood pressure means, and the upper limit for normotension by home measurement would be 127/83 mmHg and for hypertension 147/86 mmHG.

Based on the BP distribution in Tecumseh, the upper limit of normalcy for home BP is 142/92 mm Hg for men and 131/85 mm HG for women, and large-scale BP self-determination is feasible.

There are large discrepancies between screening (casual) blood pressure and home blood pressure measurements for recognition of hypertension and normotension and further prospectively study is needed to validate the prognostic value of homeBlood pressure measurements.
