Blood Pressure Differences Between Home Monitoring and Daytime Ambulatory Values and their Reproducibility in Treated Hypertensive Stroke and TIA Patients

ConclusionsDaytime ambulatory systolic and diastolic blood pressure values were significantly lower than home monitored values at both time points. Differences between the two methods were not reproducible for individuals. Using the same threshold value for both out-of-office measurement methods may not be appropriate in patients with cerebrovascular disease.
