title: [Value of indirect 24-hour blood pressure determination and blood pressure self-control for the diagnosis of arterial hypertension].
abstract: For judgement of hypertension 24-hours-blood pressure readings and self recorded blood pressures are new, more sensitive techniques which help us to recognize patients with elevated cuff blood pressures who do not need drug-treatment. Furthermore these techniques help us to select those patients who are in need of treatment as well as to adjust the treatment more adequately to the patients real blood pressure. These new tools in judgement and treatment of hypertension help us to treat our patients with more safety and less side effects. Therefore we should force this new way of hypertension judgement.
