For this study, fifty consecutive consenting patients age 18 or more in each of seven community based primary care offices will randomly be allocated to either ABPM in an exam room, or in a non-private area of the clinic. After being tested in the first location they will then be tested in the second location with the same device. The main outcome will be the mean value of the last five systolic blood pressures for each location within offices. Secondary measures will include blood pressures for patients with or without hypertension, a comparison of the initial and second set of blood pressures and of the effect of office noise in decibels on BP readings.
