This book addresses all aspects of white coat hypertension – the
phenomenon of raised blood pressure in a medical setting yet not
elsewhere – from its history to its pathophysiology, diagnosis
and treatment. White coat hypertension is a common condition,
accounting for 30–40% of the overall hypertensive population.
While many studies have addressed this condition, controversy still
exists over whether it causes an increased risk to sufferers and
should be treated. In the volume neurogenic and non-neurogenic
mechanisms are discussed and the significance of various predictive
factors, evaluated. The association of white coat hypertension with
dysmetabolic risk factors, new-onset diabetes and other conditions
is carefully reviewed. Further chapters consider the occurrence of
asymptomatic organ damage and cardiovascular outcomes in affected
patients and helpful guidance is also provided on the controversial
issue of when to treat and when not to treat. White Coat
Hypertension is based largely on work done during the past 30 years
by renowned researchers working in Milan, who have made key
contributions in improving knowledge of the condition and whose
work is well known across the world.
