Text: At the end of the study, the systolic/diastolic differences between ambulatory (n = 46) and home (n = 52) BP groups in home, daytime ambulatory, night-time ambulatory, and 24-h ambulatory BP changes averaged 2. 6 / 2. 6 mm Hg, 0. 6 / 1. 7 mm Hg, 1. 0 / 1. 4 mm Hg, and 0. 6 / 1. 5 mm Hg, respectively (P range. 06 to. 75) A nonsignificant trend to more intensive drug therapy in the ambulatory BP group and a nonsignificant trend to larger share of patients reaching (57. 7 % v 43. 5 %, P =. 16) the target pressure in the home BP group was observed due to the 3. 8 mm Hg difference in ambulatory and home diastolic BP at randomization.
