Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: Evaluate the possible different efficacy of two diuretic treatments ?either hydrochloroyhiazide (HCT) or canrenoate (KA)- in patients with high ARR but negative confirmatory test for Primary Aldosteronism;Secondary Objective: Evaluate: - possible further determinants (apart from ARR) of diuretic efficacy - tollerability of two different treatments, in particular in ione disorder induction and in adverse effects incidence;Primary end point(s): With Altman method, achieve 5 mmHg difference at least in decrease of middle systolic values in 24 hours between two groups
