Abstract
Pediatric chronic kidney disease (CKD) increases the risk of cardiovascular disease, stroke and other life-threatening conditions. Monitoring blood pressure in CKD patients is crucial to managing these risks. 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) is recommended for its comprehensive and accurate assessment of blood pressure over 24 hours. Analyzing and comparing 24-hour ABPM data of multiple diagnostic visits is a challenging task. Traditional methods involve comparing individual visits using paper printouts, which can be time-consuming and lacks a systematic overview of deviations over time. In this work, we present a dashboard visualization that allows clinicians (i) to assess the evolution of ABPM data over multiple diagnostic visits, (ii) to compare ABPM data of CKD patients with reference data of a healthy cohort, and (iii) to perform a detailed intra-individual comparison of the ABPM data acquired at two subsequent diagnostic visits. We demonstrate the dashboard in a case study of a patient with mild-to-moderate-stage CKD.
