Brief Summary

Blood pressure measurements by three methods Office Blood Pressure Measurement (OBPM), Automated Office Blood Pressure Measurement (AOBPM), and Home Blood Pressure Measurement (HBPM) were collected retrospectively across three visits for patients (N=28) referred to a specialty hypertension (HTN) clinic.
