Summary
Study start date: February 27, 2013
Actual date on which the first participant was enrolled.Rational: Serum aldosterone levels may increase despite blockade of the renin angiotensin system (RAS) with angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEI) or angiotensin receptor blockers (ARB). This aldosterone breakthrough might be associated with bad outcomes: left ventricular hypertrophy, proteinuria and progression of renal failure. Antihypertensive drugs are given either on awaking or at bedtime. RAS is stimulated during nighttime. RAS blockers and diuretics given on awaking may stimulate aldosterone synthesis, and favor aldosterone breakthrough. Objective: To show that the frequency of aldosterone breakthrough is lower when RAS blockers are given at bedtime compared to on awaking, and to analyze the determinants and consequences of aldosterone breakthrough. Duration of the study: Inclusion 2 years, follow-up one year, total 3 years Design: prospective, multicenter, randomized, controlled, open label, two parallel groups.
