This review outlines equipment, pharmacological strategies, and procedural techniques, including carbon dioxide angiography and brachial artery access, for successful catheter-based renal denervation.
This review provides practical procedural tips and tricks for performing percutaneous renal sympathetic denervation, particularly in complex anatomical or clinical scenarios.

May aid complex RDN procedures; extends technique literature but leaves open randomized outcome validation.
To most practitioners involved in catheter-based interventions, percutaneous renal sympathetic denervation is not technically challenging. However, under specific clinical circumstances (e.g., renal insufficiency) or when faced with more complex abdominal aortic anatomy (e.g., tortuosity) some procedural tips may come in handy. Here we review the equipment, antiplatelet and anticoagulant strategy as well as the procedural technique, including tips and tricks for the successful performance of catheter-based renal denervation. Among other topics, carbon dioxide angiography and brachial artery access are discussed.

Bertog et al. (2013) conducted a review in Renal denervation. Catheter-based renal denervation was evaluated. This review outlines equipment, pharmacological strategies, and procedural techniques, including carbon dioxide angiography and brachial artery access, for successful catheter-based renal denervation.
