Studies evaluating the diagnostic accuracy of different BP-monitoring techniques among patients on peritoneal dialysis
| Author | Year | N | Test Method | Reference Method | Study Results |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Wang et al. (23) | 2001 | 31 | Clinic BP 10-d morning home BP | Ambulatory BP monitoring | The association of clinic systolic BP with daytime systolic BP (r=0.81; P<0.05) was stronger than the association of home systolic BP with daytime systolic BP (r=0.62; P<0.05) |
| Koc et al. (21) | 2002 | 74 | Clinic BP | Ambulatory BP monitoring | 24-h ambulatory BP could detect the presence of LV hypertrophy, whereas clinic BP had no association with indices of target organ damage |
| O’Shaughnessy et al. (22) | 2013 | 17 | Clinic BP BpTRU-derived BPa 7-d morning home BP | Ambulatory BP monitoring | Home systolic BP overestimated daytime systolic BP by 14.2 mm Hg (95% CI, 4.3 to 21.4 mm Hg); routine clinic BP and BpTRU-derived BP could better approximate daytime BP |
