Abstract The diagnosis and management of hypertension have been based primarily on blood pressure (BP) measurement in the office setting. Higher out-of-office BP is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease, independent of office BP. Home BP monitoring (HBPM) consists of the measurement of BP by a person outside of the office at home and is a validated approach for out-of-office BP measurement. HBPM provides valuable data for diagnosing and managing hypertension. Another validated approach, ambulatory BP monitoring (ABPM), has been considered to be the reference standard of out-of-office BP measurement. However, HBPM offers potential advantages over ABPM including being a better measure of basal BP, wide availability to patients and clinicians, evidence supporting its use for better office BP control, and demonstrated efficacy when using telemonitoring along with HBPM. This state-of-the-art review examines the current state of HBPM and includes discussion of recent hypertension guidelines on HBPM, advantages of using telemonitoring with HBPM, use of self-titration of antihypertensive medication with HBPM, validation of HBPM devices, best practices for conducting HBPM in the clinical setting, how HBPM can be used as an implementation strategy approach to improve BP control in the United States, health equity in HBPM use, and HBPM use among specific populations. Finally, research gaps and future directions of HBPM are reviewed.
