CONTINUOUS AND PASSIVE BLOOD PRESSURE MONITORING THROUGHOUT THE DAY AND NIGHT

Abstract

Monitoring blood pressure serves as a significant indicator for assessing a person's health. In particular, blood volume and arterial blood pressure as the conjunction of arterial resistance and cardiac output represent a critical signal in the evaluation of a person's cardiovascular system. While in-clinic blood pressure monitoring remains the cornerstone of hypertension management, at-home monitoring can give a more complete picture of heart health and can potentially detect masked hypertension, which is only evident outside the clinic [6].
