Brief Summary: To investigate the mechanisms of white coat hypertension and study it further as a risk factor for heart damage
Detailed Description: BACKGROUND

The multidisciplinary SCOR examined causes consequences and treatments of human hypertension A central theme was the renal basis for human hypertension The subproject on white coat hypertension began in December of 1985

DESIGN NARRATIVE

In the longitudinal study eighty patients with white coat hypertension were compared with 40 age- and sex-matched normotensives and with 80 patients with sustained hypertension The protocol consisted of a clinic blood pressure measurements made both by a physician and a nurse b self-monitoring at home c noninvasive ambulatory monitoring d reactivity testing cold pressor test mental arithmetic and isometric exercise and e Korotkoff signal recording Patients were also tested for early markers of disease echocardiography and urine albumin

The 80 patients in each of the two hypertensive groups were randomized to one of four treatment protocols 20 patients each an alpha blocker a beta blocker a combined alpha- and beta-blocker or an ACE inhibitor The doses of medication were adjusted to produce similar reductions of clinic blood pressure in the different groups The test battery a-e was reported during treatment
