title: [Importance of the blood pressure profile. The general practitioner's viewpoint].
abstract: The practitioner's interest in obtaining an ambulatory blood pressure profile by a nontraumatic method is outlined. The Remler 2000 semiautomatic sphygmomanometer has proved to be very helpful in detecting hypertension and following the effect of antihypertensive drugs. The mean ambulatory blood pressure is compared with medical office values. The method described is valuable and useful.
