About this study
Official title: Evolution of Pulse Pressure Following Initiation of Antihypertensive Therapy
The main purpose of this prospective, multicentre, french observational study is to analyse the evolution of pulse pressure (PP) and to identify its prognostic factors in hypertensive patients three months after initiation of a new hypertensive therapy. The PP is defined as the difference between systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP).
- Conditions
- Hypertension
- Being tested
- Micardis®, Other hypertensives

| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Essential arterial hypertension | Patients with essential arterial hypertension needing a new antihypertensive therapy Receives: Drug: Micardis®; Drug: Other hypertensives |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Changes from baseline in pulse pressure
Measured: Up to 3 months after start of treatment

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Changes from baseline in pulse pressure (time frame: Up to 3 months after start of treatment). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 29 Jul 2014.
