However, at present, there is limited evidence on the usefulness of such an approach for routine hypertension managementWe recently launched an investigator-initiated, international, multicenter, observational, prospective study with the following objectives: • The evaluation of non-invasive ambulatory blood pressure and arterial stiffness estimates (throu…
