血压测量是参与英国心脏病预防项目干预部分的8397名中年男性心血管筛查检查的一部分。标准化训练技术将5名观察员中的4名观察员的偏差降低到可接受的限度。白天的时间和室温对血压测量有显著的影响。特别是高室温对降低血压水平有明显的效果。随着年龄的增长和体重的增加，有一致的和巨大的正相关。调查显示，在筛查时，社区血压控制程度较差：只有7%的高血压人群舒张压控制在100毫米汞柱以下[本研究与心脏病流行病学有关]。
A blood pressure measurement was part of a cardiovascular screening examination of 8397 middle-aged men participating in the intervention section of the UK Heart Disease Prevention Project. Standardized training techniques reduced observer bias to acceptable limits in 4 out of a total of 5 observers. The time of day and room temperature made significant differences in the blood pressure measurements. High room temperatues in particular apparently had a marked effect in reducing the level of blood pressure. There were consistent and large positive associations with increasing age and overweight. The survey revealed a poor degree of blood pressure control in the community at the time of screening: only 7% of the hypertensive population had their diastolic pressure controlled to below 100 mm Hg.
