Summary

Catheter-based renal sympathetic modification has been documented to be effective option for blood pressure control in patients with resistant hypertension, but the safety is still concerned around worldwide. Based on anatomic findings, blocking renal sympathetic nerves at proximity may be enough for successful renal sympathetic modifications. This study was designed to compare the efficacy and safety of full length versus proximal ablation of bilateral renal arteries.

Conditions

  • Hypertension, Resistant to Conventional Therapy

Interventions

DEVICE

Thermocool®Rcatheter

DEVICE

Thermocool®Rcatheter
