Incidence of serious adverse events (SAEs)days 1-180
Number of patients with abnormal results of blood pressure (BP)days 0,1,7,28,180BP measurements include the systolic and diastolic blood pressure.BP is measured on the brachial artery according to the Korotkoff method using a certified sphygmomanometer or tonometer. It is also allowed to use a certified electronic tonometer for measuring.
