Summary

Background: Office blood pressure (OBP) is used for diagnosing and treating hypertension but ambulatory blood pressure measurement (ABPM) associates more accurately with patient outcome. The optimal blood pressure in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) is still unknown. Our objective was to investigate whether physician awareness of ABP after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) improved BP-control. Methods: A total of 201 patients performed ABPM before and after their PCI follow-up visit. Patients were randomized to open (O) or concealed (C) ABPM results for the physician at the follow-up visit. The change in ABP and antihypertensive medication in relation to baseline ABP was compared between the two groups.
