Office and 24-h ambulatory (A) blood pressure (BP) measurement are the main techniques to quantify the BP effects of treatment in clinical trials and practice. Several clinical trials have made it clear that the BP reduction as evaluated by the two techniques differs. We performed a meta-analysis to quantify the magnitude of this difference in patients given a variety of drug treatments. Moreover, we stratified the analysis for antihypertensive class.

Abstract
Office and 24-h ambulatory (A) blood pressure (BP) measurement are the main techniques to quantify the BP effects of treatment in clinical trials and practice. Several clinical trials have made it clear that the BP reduction as evaluated by the two techniques differs. We performed a meta-analysis to quantify the magnitude of this difference in patients given a variety of drug treatments. Moreover, we stratified the analysis for antihypertensive class.
