Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Response Rate at the End of 30 Day PeriodEnd of 30 day PeriodResponse rate of Blood Pressure assessed in the following categories: * Sitting SBP \< 130 mmHg and/or a reduction of \> 20 mmHg from baseline * Sitting DBP \< 85 mmHg and/or a reduction of \> 10 mmHg from baseline Sitting BP normalization \< 130 mmHg and DBP \< 85 mmHg
Response Rate at the End of 60 Day PeriodAt the end of 60 day periodResponse rate on Blood Pressure: 1. Sitting SBP \< 130 mmHg and/or a reduction of \> 20 mmHg from baseline. 2. Sitting DBP \< 85 mmHg and/or a reduction of \> 10 mmHg from baseline. 3. Sitting BP normalization \< 130 mmHg and DBP \< 85 mmHg
Change in Systolic Blood Pressure (SBP) From BaselineBaseline and 60 daysChange in SBP = Value in visit 1(baseline) minus value in visit 3 (at 60-day treatment period)
Change in Diastolic Blood Pressure (DBP) From BaselineBaseline and 60 daysChange in DBP = Value in visit 1(baseline) minus value in visit 3 (at 60-day treatment period)

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Percentage of Patients With Presence of Metabolic Risk FactorAt the end of 60 day periodPresence of metabolic risk factor was identified by the existence of 3 out of the 5 risk factors namely: a.) presence of diabetes mellitus; b) presence of dyslipidemia; c) presence of albuminuria; d) presence of ventricular hypertrophy; and e) presence of co-morbidities, based on patients' Medical History
