Antihypertensive β-blocker use is associated with greater intervisit blood pressure variability (BPV) and with less favorable outcomes compared to other antihypertensive agents. A theoretical model demonstrated that accuracy and precision of BP measurement are affected by heart rate (HR) at a constant cuff deflation rate. We aimed to examine the empirical relationship between HR and BPV in a clinical setting.
