Short - Medium and Long Term Blood Pressure Variability in Essential Hypertensive Patients Treated With Nifedipine GITS or Ramipril - a Randomized Trial (REVERENT)
The purpose of this study is 1. to compare the effects of nifedipine GITS and ramipril on blood pressure variability in subjects with elevated blood pressure variability. 2. to assess whether the degree of treatment-induced changes in blood pressure variability, is related to the degree of regression (or progression) of organ damage in heart, kidneys and carotid arteries.
