Assessment and interpretation of blood pressure variability in a clinical setting

Figures & data

Figure 1. Different types of blood pressure variability (BPV), their determinants and prognostic relevance for cardiovascular (CV) and renal outcomes. AHT, antihypertensive treatment; BP, blood pressure; SOD, subclinical organ damage; ESRD, end-stage renal disease; eGFR, estimated glomerular filtration rate; MA, microalbuminuria; MI, myocardial infarction. *Assessed in laboratory conditions; †cardiac, vascular and renal SOD; ‡BPV on a beat-by-beat basis has not been routinely measured in population studies.
