Summary

Home blood pressure measurement has been reported to be associated with better clinic blood pressure and daytime blood pressure control. However, no study has evaluated the association between home blood pressure measurement and control of 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure in real world practice. The purpose of the present study is to investigate the effect of home blood pressure measurement on the control of ambulatory blood pressure in the real world. The detailed purposes of the present study are (1) to investigate the effects of home blood pressure measurement on the appropriate control of 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure in hypertensive patients treated with antihypertensive drug, (2) to evaluate the effect of home blood pressure measurement on the occurrence of cardiovascular events and target organ damage, (3) to investigate the status and appropriateness of home blood pressure measurement in the real world, and (4) to investigate factors of home blood pressure measurement methods affecting the treatment of hypertension.
