Hypertension represents a major burden in Asia, with a high prevalence rate but poor level of awareness and control reported in many countries in the region. Home blood pressure monitoring has been validated as an accurate and reliable measure of blood pressure that can help guide hypertension treatment as well as identify masked and white-coat hypertension. Despite its benefits, there has been limited research into home blood pressure monitoring in Asia. The authors reviewed the current evidence on home blood pressure monitoring in Asia, including but not limited to published literature, data presented at congresses, and national hypertension management guidelines to determine the current utilization of home blood pressure monitoring in clinical practice in the region. Public policies to enable greater access to home blood pressure monitoring and its use in clinical care would add considerably to improving hypertension outcomes in Asia.
高血压是亚洲的一个主要负担，该地区许多国家报告称高血压患病率高，但知晓率和控制率低。家庭血压监测已被证实是一种准确可靠的血压测量方法，有助于指导高血压治疗以及识别隐蔽性高血压和白大衣高血压。尽管有这些益处，但亚洲对家庭血压监测的研究有限。作者回顾了亚洲目前关于家庭血压监测的证据，包括但不限于已发表的文献、在大会上展示的数据以及国家高血压管理指南，以确定该地区临床实践中家庭血压监测的当前使用情况。制定公共政策，使人们更容易获得家庭血压监测设备并将其用于临床护理，将大大有助于改善亚洲的高血压治疗效果。
