Elucidation of the characteristics of Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring (ABPM) in hypertensive diabetic individuals

Abstract

Background: Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) has emerged as an essential tool in managing hypertension among individuals with diabetes, offering advantages beyond traditional office-based blood pressure (BP) readings. Unlike clinic measurements, ABPM provides a more consistent and comprehensive view of BP fluctuations throughout the day and night, offering stronger predictive value for cardiovascular and renal outcomes.
