Participant Flow

Recruited from the outpatient office at Mercy St. Louis between January 2010 and August 2012. The inclusion criteria were new or established hypertension as defined by serial BP measurements greater than or equal to 140/90 and evidence of left ventricular (LV) diastolic dysfunction as defined by a routine Doppler within a year of enrollment.

METs is a measure of exercise capacity. One MET is defined as 3.5 mL 02 uptake/kg per minute which is the resting oxygen uptake in a sitting position. The Bruce protocol consisted of successive 3 minute stages each of which requires the subject to walk at a faster speed and higher grade of incline. Each stage is assigned a MET level. The achieved exercise capacity in METs has been shown to be predictive in older adult population of survival with higher MET levels associated with improved survival.

Quality of life was assessed by a visual analogue scale before and after 10 weeks of nebivolol. The subjects self reported assessment of his/her overall health was recorded on a vertical visual analogue scale where 100 is the "best imaginable health state" and 0 is the "worst imaginable health state".
