Factoren bij discordante bloeddrukmeting bij zeer oude volwassenen (ARIC-studie)

Hypertension, Volume 83, Issue 4, Page e26377, April 1, 2026. BACKGROUND:Home blood pressure (BP) monitoring (HBPM) is increasingly used as an alternative to office BP. However, factors influencing agreement between office and home BP among very old adults remain unclear.METHODS:During ARIC (Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities) visit 10, participants underwent 3 automated office BP (AOBP) measurements using an Omron HEM-907XL and performed HBPM twice daily for 8 days using an Omron BP7450. Discordance was defined as a systolic BP difference of ±10 mm Hg between mean AOBP and HBPM. Multivariable regression models evaluated demographic, anthropometric, and clinical factors associated with discordance.RESULTS:Among 792 participants (58% female; mean age, 84±3.7 years), mean systolic BP was 130.6 mm Hg (AOBP) and 129.6 mm Hg (HBPM). Despite a minimal average difference (1.0±15.7 mm Hg), 49% had ≥10 mm Hg systolic BP discordance. Higher AOBP was associated with greater discordance. Compared
