title: [Non-invasive long-term monitoring of blood pressure and arrhythmias in hypertensive patients treated with metoprolol].
abstract: Non-invasive long-term-registration of blood-pressure and ECG was performed in 20 ambulatory patients at the age of 31 to 69 years. The method was also used to observe the effect of metoprolol. Mean arterial pressure was above 113 mm Hg, and could be reduced to values below 113 mm Hg. In 4 cases an additional dose of a diuretic was necessary. Metoprolol had also a positive effect on reduction of ventricular extrasystoles in the ECG-monitoring.
