Association of Arterial Hypertension With Renal Target Organ Damage in Kidney Transplant Recipients: The Predictive Role of Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring

Abstract

BP assessed by ABPM proved to be a stronger predictor of renal graft damage than traditional immunologic factors. ABPM improved the diagnostic accuracy of arterial hypertension in RTRs and was the only effective tool in disclosing the association of BP with 1-year renal transplant outcome.
