- Supine blood pressure at screening (after resting for at least 5 min in supine position) outside the range of 90-160 mmHg systolically or 50-95 mmHg diastolically (excluding white-coat hypertension; therefore, if a repeated measurement shows values within the range, the subject can be included in the trial); symptoms of arterial hypotension and/or a heart rate at rest outside the range of 50-90 beats per minute. This exclusion criterion also pertains to subjects being on anti-hypertensives.
