What is Home Blood Pressure Monitoring (HBPM)?
Home Blood Pressure Monitoring (HBPM) is a procedure where a patient obtains their blood pressure at home with an automated oscillometric or manual auscultatory device, usually excluding Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring (ABPM). Preparation before measurement, person taking the measurement, and the device used are not part of the definition, although they are often performed by the patient with an automated device.
