Everything about 24-hour BP Holter monitoring, white-coat hypertension, step-by-step patient instructions.

Why is 24-Hour BP Holter Performed?
- Accurately measures mean blood pressure during waking and sleeping hours.
- Evaluates normal nighttime blood pressure dipping pattern.
- Optimizes antihypertensive drug dosing and timing to prevent morning cardiovascular events.
- Diagnoses resistant hypertension.
