Intervention / Comparator Agent  
Type  Name  Details 
Intervention  Atenolol  Patients on hemodialysis with uncontrolled blood pressure will be given atenolol 25 mg three times a week and dose will be gradually increased to 100mg three times a week till blood pressure control is attained. The total duration of intervention cannot be specified as such,as it will be continued till BP Control is achieved. Once the same is achieved the medication will be continued lifelong. 
Comparator Agent  Telmisartan  Patients on hemodialysis with uncontrolled hypertension will be started on tablet telmisrtan 40 mg once daily dose and dose will be escalated to 80 mg once a day till BP control is attained. The total duration of intervention cannot be specified as such,as it will be continued till BP Control is achieved. Once the same is achieved the medication will be continued lifelong.

Brief Summary  
Cardiovascular events resulting from uncontrolled hypertension is a leading cause of
death in chronic hemodialysis patients. Despite the significant degree of mortality and morbidity,
there is a lot of lacunae in our understanding of an ideal drug to control blood pressure for
prevention of cardiovascular disease in this population. The majority of cardiovascular primary
and secondary prevention clinical trials have excluded patients on hemodialysis. We are doing
this trial to compare two common drugs- Atenolol and Telmisartan in hemodialysis patients with
uncontrolled blood pressure. Efficacy of the drug will be analysed by BP control, reduction of
LVMI (left ventricular mass index) on 2D ECHO. We will also analyse the safety of these 2
drugs in this population. In case any patients develops any side effect, this drug will be
immediately stopped and treatment will be provided to the patient free of cost.
