The potential impact of hypertension misclassification by office BP on hypertension management in this population has never been analysed.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>We performed a longitudinal study in a cohort of 260 clinically stable renal transplant patients. In all, 785 paired office and 24-h ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (24-hABPM) measurements over a median follow-up of 3.9\u2009years were available in the whole cohort.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>A total of 74% of patients had nocturnal hypertension (&amp;gt;120\/70\u2009mmHg). Average office BP and 24-hABPM remained quite stable over follow-up, as did the prevalence of nocturnal hypertension, which was 77% at the last observation. However, the global agreement between office BP and average 24\u2009h, daytime and night-time BP was unsatisfactory (k-statistics 0.10\u20130.26). In 193 visits (25% of all visits) where office BP indicated the need of antihypertensive therapy institution or modification (BP\u2009&amp;gt;140\/90\u2009mmHg), 24-hABPM was actually normal (&amp;lt;130\/80\u2009mmHg), while in 94 visits (12%), 24-hABPM was in the hypertensive range while office BP was normal. Overall, in 37% of visits, office BP provided misleading therapeutic indications.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>Hypertension misclassification by office BP is a common phenomenon in stable renal transplant patients on long-term follow-up.
