- Screening supine BP >140 or <100 mm Hg (systolic), or >90 or <60 mmHg (diastolic); following at least 5 minutes of rest. If BP is >140 or <100 mm Hg (systolic), or >90 or <60 mm Hg (diastolic), the BP should be repeated two more times and the median of the three systolic and the median of the three diastolic BP values should be used to determine the subject's eligibility. If either of the median values is outside of the criteria above, the subject is excluded.
