Please fill out this 10-minute survey from colleagues of Hypertension Canada on the standardized BP procedure. redcap.link/barriers.to.... Feel free to fill out a survey for each clinical site where you measure BP in an outpatient setting.

Subclinical primary aldosteronism is an under-recognized driver of cardiovascular risk. Could it be a new target for CV prevention? Read our Circulation editorial —>

🚨 Survey Alert! Standardized office BP measurements are recommended everywhere, but still underused. We want to hear from you: what are the barriers to using them as a routine in clinical practice? Click here to read the consent form and take the survey: redcap.link/barriers.to....

Just published in Hypertension! In a pilot study, we tested whether common "shortcuts" of the standardized AOBP measurement procedure affect accuracy, assessed with daytime ABPM. www.ahajournals.org/doi/10.1161/...

Cool trial (thx Dr. Cluett for sharing!). I love the within person comparison. @goupilremi.bsky.social @deanpicone.bsky.social Random ? (having enjoyed reading & doing similar studies): Is accuracy at a single time enough? Should we worry about BP change too? www.ahajournals.org/doi/10.1161/...

Our new data on subclinical PA and MACE is out in Circulation! For the first time, we show that renin-independant aldosterone production is associated with an increased risk of MACE independently of BP, in people mostly normotensive with low CV risk. www.ahajournals.org/doi/full/10....

All Canadians, please take the time to fill out this survey. It will help us identify the most important topics for our next comprehensive hypertension guideline.

The Hypertension Canada statement on #cuffless BP is available at @amjhypertension.bsky.social academic.oup.com/ajh/advance-... lead by @goupilremi.bsky.social and Cederick Landry As you can see we discuss the technology but are not enthused about what we have seen so far #Hypertension

HYPERTENSION CANADA STATEMENTS
Regarding cuffless BP monitoring, Hypertension Canada issues the following statements and recommendations:

Cuffless BP monitoring is a rapidly evolving field that may ultimately allow improvements in hypertension awareness and management.

As various technologies exist, all cuffless BP devices will need to be independently validated for accuracy before routine clinical use can be considered, as is required for all cuff-based devices.

Once proven to be accurate, a cuffless BP device will need to demonstrate clinical utility before it can be integrated into routine clinical care.

At this time, no diagnosis or treatment decisions should be made solely based on cuffless BP measurements. Current data only supports using validated cuff-based devices for these purposes and all readings from cuffless BP measurements need to be confirmed using validated BP measurements devices.

To be listed on Hypertension Canada’s List of Recommended Devices, a cuffless BP device will be required to pass all required validation tests described in the ESH 2023 validation protocol14 until the upcoming ISO 81060-7 standard is published, at which point this requirement will be reassessed.

I might as well start with this as a first post! Hypertension Canada is hard at work to publish new guidelines. Our first step, guidelines based on WHO’s HEARTS initiative made for and by Primary Care will soon be submitted for publication. See this for details: onlinecjc.ca/article/S082...
