Decreased blood viscosity and serum levels of erythropoietin after anti-hypertensive treatment with amlodipine or metoprolol: results of a cross-over study.

abstract：:An evaluation of the 'Accutracker', a new lightweight ambulatory blood pressure monitor, has been carried out in 14 subjects. Using a cross-over study design, BP readings obtained by the monitor were compared with BP measurements carried out in the opposite arm by a random zero sphygmomanometer. Both the systolic and ...
