This review explores blood pressure variability, detailing its measurement, influencing factors, and clinical significance. Understanding blood pressure variability is crucial for assessing cardiovascular health and patient prognosis.

Area of Science:

  • Cardiovascular Physiology
  • Clinical Measurement Science

Context:

  • Blood pressure variability (BPV) is a complex physiological phenomenon.
  • Understanding BPV is essential for cardiovascular risk assessment.

Purpose:

  • To provide a comprehensive overview of blood pressure variability.
  • To discuss methods for quantifying BPV and its physiological underpinnings.
  • To explore the clinical relevance of BPV in patient prognosis.

Summary:

  • The review covers historical perspectives, quantification methods, and 24-hour characteristics of BPV.
  • It examines mechanisms influencing BPV, including neural, humoral, and mechanical factors.
  • The role of BPV in assessing baroreflex sensitivity, aging, hypertension, and drug effects is discussed, alongside ambulatory monitoring techniques.
