Blood pressure monitoring at home, office, and with a 24-hour device
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study compares blood pressure readings taken at home, in the doctor's office, and over a full 24-hour period using a portable monitor. It may help understand the best way to track blood pressure in children and teens with slightly high blood pressure.
