Circadian variation of in-hospital acute cardiogenic pulmonary oedema (CPE) with the highest occurrence in the early morning has been reported repeatedly. However, no study evaluating circadian variation of CPE in the field has been published. Therefore, we decided to evaluate the circadian variation of CPE in the Central Bohemian Region of the Czech Republic in the patients treated by regional emergency medical service (EMS) and analyse its association with baseline blood pressure in the field.
