This review discusses the current state of radiofrequency denervation of renal arteries for achieving blood pressure control and reducing cardiovascular complications in resistant hypertension.
Why the study?
Does radiofrequency denervation of the renal arteries improve blood pressure control and reduce cardiovascular complications in patients with resistant hypertension?
Does radiofrequency denervation of the renal arteries improve blood pressure control and reduce cardiovascular complications in patients with resistant hypertension?
This review discusses the current clinical use of radiofrequency renal denervation as a method to achieve blood pressure control in resistant hypertension.
Renal denervation for resistant hypertension remains investigational; leaves open its routine adoption pending definitive RCTs.
Resistant hypertension is an urgent problem in modern cardiology, leading to myocardial infarction, stroke, and, as a consequence, early disability of patients. The emergence of such a method as radiofrequency denervation of the renal arteries in the complex antihypertensive therapy can expect to achieve control of blood pressure and thus reduce the risk of cardiovascular complications. This article presents the current state of the use of this method in clinical practice.
