diagnosis of essential hypertension
You may not be if
(i) severe hypertension as defined by clinical systolic BP ≥180 mmHg and/or diastolic BP ≥110 mmHg (because they may need emergency treatment and it is unethical to delay such treatment due to the proposed project), (ii) inability to provide consent, (iii) pregnancy, (iv) night-time occupations (we need to compare AOBP and clinic BP readings to daytime ABPM average when the patient should be awake), (v) are occupational drivers (because potential dangers in driving could occur when patients are asked to remain still), (vi) receiving anti-coagulants (to prevent bruises when using ABPM), (vii) with known atrial fibrillation (as ABPMs and AOBP use have not been validated in this group)
