Abstract :
To facilitate and automate the analysis of blood pressure (BP) profiles from relatively dense ambulatory BP recordings, a BP work station, which is supported by a PC-compatible system to which many ambulatory monitors can be serially interfaced, has been developed. The BP time series manipulation procedure is a menu-driven collection of software packages which produce graphs in the time and phase domains, allowing the assessment of BP profile features for individuals and different populations
