Primary Outcome Measures:

To assess the subjects treated to target rate overall and on each treatment combination step. [ Time Frame: 20 weeks maximun ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:

To assess the influence of several prognostic factors on the need for combination therapy. [ Time Frame: 20 weeks maximun ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
To evaluate the effect of olmesartan monotherapy and the add-on treatment algorithm overall and on each treatment combination step in terms of the percentage of patients achieving certain BP levels. [ Time Frame: 20 weeks maximum ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
To evaluate the effect of olmesartan monotherapy and the add-on treatment algorithm in terms of change of mean sitting systolic BP (sBP) and diastolic BP (dBP) versus baseline at each visit. [ Time Frame: 20 weeks maximum ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
To evaluate the effect of olmesartan monotherapy and the add-on treatment algorithm in terms of a decrease of greater than or equal to 10 mmHg in mean sitting dBP or a mean sitting dBP of less than 90 mmHg at trough at each visit. [ Time Frame: 20 weeks maximum ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
To evaluate the safety and tolerability of olmesartan monotherapy and the add-on treatment algorithm after the maximum number of weeks of active treatment. [ Time Frame: 20 weeks maximum ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
