Purpose
The aim of the observational study is to ascertain the degree of blood pressure control in the early-morning hours after 8 weeks of treatment with Telmisartan/Telmisartan+Hydrochlorothiazide and during 44 weeks of follow-up, in patients with hypertension using home blood pressure measurements.

Further study details as provided by Boehringer Ingelheim:
Primary Outcome Measures:
- Change from baseline in mean early morning systolic blood pressure, mean early morning diastolic blood pressure, and degree of control. (6:00 to 11:59), BP < 135/85 mmHg. (HBPM: mean of morning measurements). [ Time Frame: 217 Weeks ]
Secondary Outcome Measures:
- Clinical control (office BP), response rates, reduction in office cuff systolic and diastolic BP. Office BP control criteria: BP < 140/90 mmHg. Pulse rate, pulse pressure, discontinuations and tolerability. [ Time Frame: 217 Weeks ]
