Blood pressure (BP) obtained by the physician in his office and ambulatory BP recorded every hour throughout 24 hours with a noninvasive automated BP monitoring device were compared in 10 normotensives and 162 hypertensives. Casual BPs significantly correlated with averages in ambulatory BPs (ABPs) throughout the whole day, day (7 am - 10 pm) and night (0-5 am). However, it was noted that 6 of 10 normotensives and all of the moderate to severe hypertensives had ABPs of more than 150/90 mmHg at least once during the 24-hour period. The incidence of ABPs greater than 150/90 mmHg among all readings was higher in untreated and treated hypertensives with diastolic BPs in the office of more than 105 mmHg, and, when checked along with the clock time, higher not only in the morning but also in the evening. On the other hand, one-third or one-fifth of treated hypertensives with diastolic office BPs less than 90 mmHg or between 90 and 105 mmHg respectively had ABPs less than 150/90 mmHg throughout the whole day. When the effect of nicardipine (60 mg, t.i.d.) or slow-release nifedipine (27.3 +/- 3.0 mg, b.i.d.) on minimum BP during the night was analyzed, long-acting nifedipine decreased BP throughout the night to levels not significantly different from normotensive controls, whereas short-acting nicardipine did not affect nighttime BPs. These results suggest that simple ABP monitoring throughout the day gives us useful information to evaluate the severity of hypertension and the efficacy of antihypertensive medication as well as to avoid overtreatment with long-acting hypotensive agents resulting in a great fall in BP during sleep.
