“…Other stipulated BP-lowering drugs were added to each regimen for further BP control. ASCOT participants at four trial centres in the United Kingdom and Ireland were eligible for recruitment into the ABP substudy [5]. The study protocol was approved by relevant institutional review boards and the appropriate local research ethics committees.…”

The amlodipine-perindopril and atenolol-thiazide regimens had different effects on daytime and night-time ABP, which may have contributed to the lower rates of events in patients treated with amlodipine-perindopril therapy. Both CBP and ABP were significantly associated with rates of cardiovascular events. ABP nocturnal pressures provided complimentary and incremental utility over CBP in the prediction of cardiovascular risk in treated hypertensive patients. These data support the use of ABP to assess the effect of antihypertensive treatment in clinical practice.
