Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Absolute change in systolic blood pressure | from baseline to week 8 | mmHg |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Ratio of patients achieving blood pressure ≤ 140 and/or 90 mmHg | from baseline to week 8 | — |
| Ratio of responder patients (reduction of SBP ≥20 mmHg and/or DBP ≥10 mmHg) | from baseline to week 8 | — |
| Absolute change of heart rate | from baseline to week 8 | beat/min |
| Correlation between absolute change in blood pressure and absolute change in heart rate | from baseline to week 8 | — |
| The absolute change in PR interval on electrocardiography | from baseline to week 8 | ms. The PR interval indicates atrioventricular conduction time. |
| Absolute change in diastolic blood pressure (DBP) | from baseline to week 8 | mmHg |
| The absolute change in microalbuminuria (if available) | from baseline to week 8 | mg/mmol |
| The ratio of patients experiencing an adverse event including the nature of the adverse event/severe adverse event | from baseline to week 8 | — |
| The correlation between physician's office and home blood pressure measurements (Difference in medians) | from baseline to week 8 | mmHg |
| Blood pressure variability (daily or hourly) in home blood pressure measurement | from baseline to week 8 | — |
| The absolute change in HbA1c (if available) | from baseline to week 8 | — |
