Quizplus · Accepted Answer

ABPM records blood pressure over a 24-hour period to help identify those children with white coat hypertension and masked hypertension. ABPM is useful in documenting the blood pressure load, which is the total amount of time the blood pressure is elevated above normal limits during a 24-hour period. By measuring blood pressure load, the ABPM may be able to identify those children who are at greatest risk for target organ damage.
