Study summary

Primary objective: to characterize hypertensive patients treated for at least 1 month with Telmisartan (alone or in combination with other drugs) in order to define the beneficiary population (those actually receiving the treatment).

Secondary objectives:

  • to describe the patients' blood pressure values (when self-monitored) and satisfaction with the treatment (ease of use, efficacy, safety) on the basis of a patient self-questionnaire, filled out 4 weeks after consultation.
  • to compare the characteristics of the beneficiary population to those of the initial target population defined in the SPC (summary of product characteristics) for Telmisartan

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Sep 17, 2014, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
