Diagnostic and prognostic yields of ambulatory blood pressure measurements in haemodialysis patients: a 6-year longitudinal study.

Background: Blood pressure (BP) control in haemodialysis (HD) patients is essential. Peri-dialytic BP levels do not accurately diagnose hypertension or predict the cardiovascular (CV) mortality.

Methods: In this study, we recruited 43 adult patients who had been on chronic HD for ≥3 months.
