Summary

Blood pressure variability (BPV) is being increasingly recognized as an important influence on hypertension outcomes as well as a risk factor for other cardiovascular (CV) events. However, in Asia there is a current lack of awareness of BPV and its significance on patient outcomes. Furthermore, there is ongoing debate on the role of home blood pressure (HBP) monitoring in managing hypertension patients and uncertainty on how best to integrate it into clinical practice.

Therefore, we conduct Asia BP@Home study to assess HBP control status in each Asian country and develop an Asian consensus and Asia-specific treatment for hypertension.
