Participant Flow

190 patients screened as eligible for study inclusion between June 9, 2009 and January 15, 2010.

84 subjects excluded pre-randomization due to blood pressure value at baseline visit (n=36); ineligible anatomy (n=30); declined participation (n=10); and other exclusion criteria (n=8).
