Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: 1.Evaluation of the effect of nebivolol on peripheral arterial blood pressure assessed in oscillometric measurements at the in-patient visits in adolescents with hypertension. 2.Safety evaluation of nebivolol in adolescents with hypertension. ;Secondary Objective: Assessment of the effect of nebivolol on blood pressure in the ABPM measurements (ambulatory blood pressure monitoring).;Primary end point(s): 1. Number of patients with normalization of blood pressure assessed at the in-patient visits at the end of the II period of the study (6 weeks) in each subgroup (A-B) 2. Number of patients with normalization of blood pressure assessed at the in-patient visits during the III period of the study (at week 38) 3. Number of patients with adverse events and serious adverse events in each subgroup (A-B) in the II period of the study 4. Number of patients with adverse events and serious adverse events in the III period of the study. ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: week 6th (endpoint 1 and 3) and week 38th (endpoint 2 and 4) | — |

| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): 1. Number of patients with normalization of blood pressure evaluated through ABPM (ambulatory blood pressure monitoring) measurements in each study subgroup (A-B) at the end of II study period (week 6) and at the end of III study period among all participants. 2. Change in mean and percentile values (Z-score) of systolic, diastolic and mean pressure assessed at the in-patient visit measurements and through ABPM tests in the second period of the study (week 6) in each subgroup (A-B) and in the third period of the study (week 38) among all participants. ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: week 6th and week 38th | — |
