Home Blood Pressure Measurements for Managing Hypertension in Hemodialysis Patients

Abstract: Home blood pressure (BP) monitoring serves as a practical method to detect changes in BP instead of ambulatory BP monitoring in hemodialysis patients. To evaluate the relationship of reduction in home BP compared to interdialytic ambulatory BP measurements we analyzed the data from the dry-weight reduction in hypertensive hemodialysis patients (DRIP) trial in which 100 patients had their dry weight probed based on clinical sign and symptoms and 50 patients served as controls. We measured home BP 3 times a day … Show more

“…(2) Because this BP is readily available, epidemiologists may want to reassess the prognostic significance of high or low BP and its change over time on cardiovascular events and mortality; this may better clarify the prognostic significance of median intradialytic BP. (3) For clinicians, our study shows that if home BP monitoring is not available or possible, then the consideration of intradialytic BP recordings may improve the diagnosis and management of hypertension among hemodialysis patients (29).…”

“…Amerika Birleşik Devletlerinde kronik böbrek yetmezliği nedeniyle hemodiyaliz tedavisi gören hastaların %72'sinde hipertansiyon görüldüğü ve hastaların %58'inin antihipertansif tedavi almalarına karşın, hipertansiyonun kontrol altında olmadığı saptanmıştır (1,2). Ülkemizde ise hemodiyaliz tedavisi gören hastaların %44,4'ü hipertansif olup, bu hastaların yaklaşık yarısının kan basınçlarının kontrol altında olmadığı ve hastaların %53,5'inin kardiyovasküler komplikasyonlar nedeniyle öldüğü bildirilmektedir (3).…”

“…In the long-term, however, repeated ambulatory BP monitoring can be inconvenient for the patient and demanding on hospital resources. Home BP measurement, another out-of-office approach to BP monitoring, is a valid alternative to ambulatory BP monitoring in patients with and without chronic kidney disease, including those receiving maintenance hemodialysis (7)(8)(9). However, for as yet unexplained reasons, the home technique appears be less accurate than standard office BP measurement in the PD population (3) intervals in the absence of a health professional, can negate "white-coat" effect and improve the accuracy of in-office BP measurement in patients with and without chronic kidney disease (10,11).…”
