Participant Flow

Subjects were recruited to 3 sites, the University of Florida, Mayo Clinic in Rochester Minnesota, and Emory University. Subjects were seen in medical clinics by physicians and/or nurse coordinators. Patients were recruited from 2005-2010.

After enrollment subjects were currently on medication for blood pressure were required to wash out for a minimum of 2-4 weeks, at which point the blood pressure was reassessed for eligibility into the study. Of the 1701 subjects who enrolled in the study, 888 subjects met eligibility requirements to continue the study while 813 subjects did not.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: baseline to 18 weeks of treatment

Population: A total 768 patients had at least monotherapy response data. Of the 386 patients assigned to the atenolol arm, 357 completed both drugs. Of the 382 assigned to the HCTZ arm, 355 completed both drugs. The delta blood pressure below is for patients who completed both drugs.
