Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:To evaluate, using a scheme to monitor arterial pressure in out-patients (MAPOP), how well patients were able to control their light arterial hypertension after hygienic-dietary measures had been found insufficient. DESIGN:Observational study. SITE. Urban health centre. PATIENTS:18 people suffering from light arterial hypertension and undergoing treatment with hygienic-dietary measures only. MAIN MEASUREMENTS AND RESULTS:Out-patient monitoring of arterial pressure over 24 hours with an oscillometric model Spacelabs 90202. The arterial pressure load or index of average deviation (APL/IAD) was analysed. Two of the 18 (11%) presented APL values corresponding to normal tension and 11 (61%) had values of circadian curve type 1 (APL/IAD < or = 30%). CONCLUSIONS:A high percentage (61%) of those patients with light arterial hypertension, whose doctors had considered exhausted the possibilities of treatment without drugs, showed they could control to an acceptable degree their arterial tension with MAPOP: The perfecting and lowering in price of MAPOP systems, along with their increasing use in the diagnosis and treatment of patients with hypertension, could also provide important savings on pharmaceuticals.
