Ambulatory blood pressure at sea level and high altitude in a climber with a kidney transplant and hypertension

Abstract:

Background and Objectives: High altitude may increase blood pressure (BP) and the kidney plays an important role in acclimatization. Little is known about how transplanted kidneys respond to the hypoxic stress at high altitude. We compared 24 hour ambulatory BP in a climber with a kidney transplant and hypertension at sea level and at high altitude (2860–4300 m).
Methods: Welch-Allyn ABPM 6100 monitor was used to collect heart rate, systolic BP ... Expand abstract
