The nocturnal blood pressure (BP) surge in seconds (sec-surge) is defined as a brief, acute transient BP elevation over several tens of seconds, triggered by obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and sympathetic hyperactivity. Sec-surge imposes a significant strain on the cardiovascular system, potentially triggering cardiovascular events. Quantitative evaluation of sec-surge level could be valuable in assessing cardiovascular risks. To accurately measure the detailed sec-surge, including its shape as BP rises and falls, we developed a beat-by-beat (BbB) BP monitoring device using tonometry. In addition, we developed an automatic sec-surge detection algorithm to help identify sec-surge cases in the overnight BbB BP data. The device and algorithm successfully detected sec-surges in patients with OSA. Our results demonstrated that sec-surge was associated with left ventricular hypertrophy and arterial stiffness independently of nocturnal BP level or variability. Sec-surge would be worth monitoring for assessing cardiovascular risks, in addition to nocturnal BP level. Nocturnal blood pressure (BP) surge in seconds (sec-surge) places heavy load on the cardiovascular system and can trigger cardiovascular events. To identify sec-surges, we developed a beat-by-beat BP monitoring device and a sec-surge detection algorithm. Furthermore, sec-surge was more related to cardiovascular risks than conventional nocturnal BP parameters.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D006973 Hypertension Persistently high systemic arterial BLOOD PRESSURE. Based on multiple readings (BLOOD PRESSURE DETERMINATION), hypertension is currently defined as when SYSTOLIC PRESSURE is consistently greater than 140 mm Hg or when DIASTOLIC PRESSURE is consistently 90 mm Hg or more. Blood Pressure, High,Blood Pressures, High,High Blood Pressure,High Blood Pressures
D001794 Blood Pressure PRESSURE of the BLOOD on the ARTERIES and other BLOOD VESSELS. Systolic Pressure,Diastolic Pressure,Pulse Pressure,Pressure, Blood,Pressure, Diastolic,Pressure, Pulse,Pressure, Systolic,Pressures, Systolic
D001795 Blood Pressure Determination Techniques used for measuring BLOOD PRESSURE. Blood Pressure Determinations,Determination, Blood Pressure

D000465 Algorithms A procedure consisting of a sequence of algebraic formulas and/or logical steps to calculate or determine a given task. Algorithm
D018660 Blood Pressure Monitoring, Ambulatory Method in which repeated blood pressure readings are made while the patient undergoes normal daily activities. It allows quantitative analysis of the high blood pressure load over time, can help distinguish between types of HYPERTENSION, and can assess the effectiveness of antihypertensive therapy. Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring,Monitoring, Ambulatory Blood Pressure,Blood Pressure Monitoring, Home,Blood Pressure Monitoring, Self,Home Blood Pressure Monitoring,Self Blood Pressure Monitoring
D020181 Sleep Apnea, Obstructive A disorder characterized by recurrent apneas during sleep despite persistent respiratory efforts. It is due to upper airway obstruction. The respiratory pauses may induce HYPERCAPNIA or HYPOXIA. Cardiac arrhythmias and elevation of systemic and pulmonary arterial pressures may occur. Frequent partial arousals occur throughout sleep, resulting in relative SLEEP DEPRIVATION and daytime tiredness. Associated conditions include OBESITY; ACROMEGALY; MYXEDEMA; micrognathia; MYOTONIC DYSTROPHY; adenotonsilar dystrophy; and NEUROMUSCULAR DISEASES.
