Significant variations of blood pressure are very important clinical events that can lead to seriouscardiovascular events, such as stroke, myocardial ischemia, and heart failure. Accordingly, carefulmeasurement of the blood pressure is very important for the classifying the patients, estimation ofthe associated risks and guiding of the managment. Twenty-four hours ambulatory monitoring ofthe blood pressure remains the method of choice for the diagnosis and risk prediction.
