    AbstractTo evaluate the cost effectiveness of home versus clinic blood pressure 11 patients with mild untreated hypertension were instructed in self-measurement of blood pressure with mercury manometers. The lower total cost of using home readings as well as problems of bias and blinding are discussed. Home blood pressure is a promising technique for clinical and epidemiologic research.
