Ambulatory BP monitoring is considered the gold standard method for diagnosing hypertension, but it is cumbersome to perform. We sought to determine whether lower BP cutoffs using office and automated BP would reduce the rate of missed hypertension in potential living donors.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Design, setting, participants, &amp; measurements<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      We measured BP in 578 prospective donors using three modalities: (\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">1<\/jats:italic>\n                      ) single office BP, (\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">2<\/jats:italic>\n                      ) office automated BP (average of five consecutive automated readings separated by 1 minute), and (\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">3<\/jats:italic>\n                      ) ambulatory BP. Daytime ambulatory BP was considered the gold standard for diagnosing hypertension. We assessed both the Seventh Report of the Joint National Committee on Prevention, Detection, Evaluation, and Treatment of High Blood Pressure (JNC-7) and the American College of Cardiology\/American Heart Association (ACC\/AHA) definitions of hypertension in the cohort. Empirical thresholds of office BP and automated BP for the detection of ambulatory BP\u2013diagnosed hypertension were derived using Youden index, which maximizes the sum of sensitivity and specificity and gives equal weight to false positive and false negative values.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Hypertension was diagnosed in 90 (16%) prospective donors by JNC-7 criteria and 198 (34%) prospective donors by ACC\/AHA criteria. Masked hypertension was found in 3% of the total cohort by JNC-7 using the combination of office or automated BP, and it was seen in 24% by ACC\/AHA guidelines. Using Youden index, cutoffs were derived for both office and automated BP using JNC-7 (&lt;123\/82 and &lt;120\/78 mm Hg) and ACC\/AHA (&lt;119\/79 and &lt;116\/76 mm Hg) definitions. Using these lower cutoffs, the sensitivity for detecting hypertension improved from 79% to 87% for JNC-7 and from 32% to 87% by ACC\/AHA definition, with negative predictive values of 95% and 87%, respectively. Missed (masked) hypertension was reduced to 2% and 4% of the entire cohort by JNC-7and ACC\/AHA, respectively.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The prevalence of hypertension was higher in living donor candidates using ACC\/AHA compared JNC-7 definitions.
