Professor Matthew Pase from Monash University says a study that saw its researchers track the blood pressure of 225 Australians aged between 55 and 80 for 24 hours shows the importance of extended blood pressure monitoring. The researchers found that fluctuations in blood pressure over the course of a day can impact cognitive health and can contribute to the risk of dementia, while higher average blood pressure over 24 hours was also associated with greater evidence of vascular brain injury, which occurs when blood vessels are blocked, narrowed, or weakened
