What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Change from baseline in mean early morning systolic blood pressure, mean early morning diastolic blood pressure, and degree of control. (6:00 to 11:59), BP < 135/85 mmHg. (HBPM: mean of morning measurements).

    Measured: 217 Weeks

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Clinical control (office BP), response rates, reduction in office cuff systolic and diastolic BP. Office BP control criteria: BP < 140/90 mmHg. Pulse rate, pulse pressure, discontinuations and tolerability.

    Measured: 217 Weeks

Are results available for this study?

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change from baseline in mean early morning systolic blood pressure, mean early morning diastolic blood pressure, and degree of control. (6:00 to 11:59), BP < 135/85 mmHg. (HBPM: mean of morning measurements). (time frame: 217 Weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
