Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Change in Central Systolic Blood Pressure (SBP)
Changes in aortic impedance in patients on nebivolol vs. metoprolol succinate in Type 2 hypertensive diabetic patients as measured by the change from baseline in central systolic blood pressure.
Baseline and 26 Weeks
Secondary Outcomes (3)
Change in Pulse Wave Velocity (PWV)
Baseline and 26 Weeks
Change in Augmentation Index
Baseline and 26 Weeks
Change in Pulse Pressure Amplification
Baseline and 26 Weeks
Study Arms (2)
