Summary

This study looks at people whose blood pressure seems normal at the doctor's office but is actually high during daily life (masked hypertension). It compares two treatment strategies: using office readings versus 24-hour ambulatory monitoring to guide medication. Over 4 years, researchers will track heart and kidney health to see which approach leads to better outcomes.
