title: [Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring. Clinical use. Is this the right time?].
abstract: Despite some technical limits ambulatory blood pressure monitoring must be considered as a careful instrument for blood pressure measurement. After demonstration of its sensibility and specificity in experimental trials, the use of blood pressure monitoring has been extended to clinical evaluation. The recent Consensus Conferences on Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring has suggested that this method should not be routinely yet, but it should be recommended in clinical selected cases.
