Abstract

Prevalence of Resistant Hypertension (RHTN) is increasing. Uncontrolled Hypertension (HTN) increases risk for stroke, and ischemic heart disease. Renal Denervation (RDN) was developed as a treatment procedure for RHTN. Currently there are no markers to determine the technical success of the procedure. There is evidence both in favor and against the procedure and it is based on performing the procedure with a catheter from a single manufacture.
