Study Summary

The study examined the efficacy of LCZ696 in comparison to the ARB olmesartan on Central Aortic Systolic Blood Pressure (CASP) and other measures of central hemodynamics and arterial stiffness in elderly patients with an elevated systolic blood pressure (SBP) and widened pulse pressure (PP).

Primary Outcome

Central aortic blood pressure was derived from peripheral pressure waveforms recorded noninvasively from the brachial artery using a cuff-based device. This technique uses the brachial pressure and a signal processing algorithm to transform brachial signals into central blood pressure (BP) waveforms. When the aortic pressure waveform was derived, key pulse wave analysis (PWA) parameters, such as CASP was calculated by the system software. At the first study visit, the arm with the highest systo
