In RA patients, "unattended" BP is lower than traditional ("attended") BP and more closely associated with LV mass. In these patients, the "unattended" automated BP measurement is a promising tool which requires further evaluation.KEY MESSAGES"Unattended" automated blood pressure registration, aimed to reduce the "white-coat effect" is lower than "attended" value in rheumatoid arthritis patients."Unattended" blood pressure is more closely associated with left ventricular mass than "attende" registration.
