Association between routine and standardized blood pressure measurements and left ventricular hypertrophy among patients on hemodialysis
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Left ventricular (LV) hypertrophy is common among patients on hemodialysis. While a relationship between blood pressure (BP) and LV hypertrophy has been established, it is unclear which BP measurement method is the strongest correlat...
