The Use of Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitors to Assess Angiotensin Converting Enzyme Inhibitors

Summary

The purpose of this study is to use ambulatory blood pressure monitors to investigate whether enalapril is superior to lisinopril in managing nocturnal hypertension in patients with resistant hypertension currently treated with daytime angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors.
