Abnormalities (reduction in/absence of) in diurnal bp rhythm are much more commonly seen in patients with chronic uremia than in patients with primary hypertension or in normal subjects. Target-organ damage is greater in these patients. However, the extent to which these diurnal bp rhythm changes are consistent or variable is untested. We retrospectively examined 223 ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) traces in 92 patients with chronic uremia who had undergone ABPM at least twice (mean 2.3 ABPM traces/patient) over the period 1991-1997. ABPM technique and analysis were constant over this period. We found that for patients with chronic declining renal function but not yet on dialysis therapy, 67% retained the same diurnal rhythm from one ABPM recording to the next; if the known tendency for declining renal function to accompanied by a greater prevalence of "non-dipping" is taken into account, 82% of all patients had a "predictable" diurnal pattern. 79% of transplant patients, 87% of haemodialysis patients and 100% of CAPD patients retained the diurnal rhythmicity from one ABPM session to the next. Non-dipping was much more frequent than dipping (67% vs 33%). We conclude that abnormalities of diurnal BP rhythm are reasonably consistent in patients with renal hypertension, especially as renal function declines and patients enter the renal replacement therapy programme.
