Blood pressure response to close or loose contact between physician and patient during attended office blood pressure measurement

Original language description

Purpose Compared to unattended office blood pressure (uOBP), attended office blood pressure (aOBP) is higher. It is not known, however, to what extent distance between physician and patient influences blood pressure (BP) values. Materials and methods Participants were stable hypertensive patients, followed in the university hospital-based out-patient center. During a session, automated office BP was measured three times after a pre-set five-minute pause, using the Omron 907 device; both aOBP and uOBP were done, in a random order. Simultaneously, beat-to-beat BP measurement was performed using the Finapress device. During aOBP, some participants were in close contact with the physician while others were in loose contact where the doctor was sitting in the room about 2.5 m apart. One year later, the second session with the same protocol was organized, but the close and loose contact were interchanged. The data were analyzed using a paired t-test. Results Complete data were collected in 32 patients, baseline uOBP was 122.8 +/- 14.8/69.5 +/- 11.7 mmHg. Systolic and diastolic aOBP with close contact was higher by 4.6 +/- 6.9 and 1.9 +/- 3.4 mmHg (p &lt; 0.0007 and 0.0039, respectively), while aOBP with loose contact was not different from uOBP. Beat-to-beat BP increased during aOBP by 6.5 +/- 8.5/3.3 +/- 4.8 mmHg. The increase persisted during all the three aOBP measurements (p &lt; 0.0001 for all systolic and diastolic BP values); the results were similar for close and loose contact. The peak increase during uOBP was of similar magnitude as during aOBP but it lasted shorter: it reached the significance level of p &lt; 0.0001 only during the first uOBP measurement. Conclusions Compared to uOBP, aOBP values were higher with close, but not with loose contact between physician and patient. These differences were, however, not detected by beat-to-beat BP measurement.
