Blood Pressure Monitoring in Normotensive Type – 2 Diabetics Using 24hr Blood Pressure Monitoring Device and Its Relationship With Anthropometric Measurements: A One Year Hospital Based Cross Sectional Study
Abstract:Background And Objectives: Systemic Hypertension (HTN) is one of the most common co-morbidities in Diabetes Mellitus (DM). It has been
suggested that ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) be used for hypertension assessment. Hence the present study was carried out to
estimate the prevalence of hypertension in normotensive type 2 diabetic patients by using a 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure machine and also to
assess the relationship between blood pressure patterns and anthropometric measurements.
