Circadian temporal structure evaluated by automatic monitoring

A few aspects of the circadian time structure were evaluated in a young healthy woman, with a special reference to arterial pressure and body temperature. Both parameters were estimated by the use of automatic equipments. The present study evidences the importance and the advantages of autorhythmometry (which should be applied in every instance, but can not be omitted when measuring arterial pressure) and automatic monitoring (which warrants an excellent reproducibility of measurements).
