Methodology: 150 adults with primary hypertension attending the hypertension clinic in Suez Canal University were studied. Parameters of ABPM were analyzed and correlated with LVH. LV geometric changes. LVMI was calculated by two different methods, one in relation to the body mass index and another in relation to height 2.7.
