    Abstract:
    Blood pressure variability (BPV) is an important indicator in risk stratification for hypertension. Among the daily BPVs assessed using a 24-h ambulatory blood pressure (BP) monitor nocturnal systolic BPV has been suggested to predict cardiovascular risks. We hypothesized that very short-term BPV at rest would correlate with nocturnal BPV because of the shared autonomic BP regulatory system under no daily exertion. Thirty untreated normotensive and hypertensive adults underwent 30-min continuous beat-by-beat BP recordings in the supine position, followed by 24-h ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM). The relationship between very short-term BPV (standard deviation (SD), coefficient of variation (CV)) and daytime and nocturnal BPV (SD, CV, average real variability (ARV), and standardized ARV (CV-ARV)) was assessed with Pearson's correlation coefficients. Very short-term BPV correlated significantly with nocturnal BPV (ARV, r = 0.604, p < 0.001) but not with daytime BPV. These trends were more pronounced with the increasing data length of continuous beat-by-beat BP recording. Using a data segment from the last 10 min of a 30-min continuous beat-by-beat BP recording resulted in a stronger correlation between very short-term BPV and nocturnal BPV than using earlier segments. The findings of this study suggest that very short-term BPV in the supine position at rest may predict nocturnal BPV. Since the burden of ABPM for patients has hindered clinical dissemination, very short-term BPV has the potential to develop a novel index of BPV.
