View clinical trials related to Resistant Hypertension.
Filter by:Hypertension is a major risk factor for stroke and cardiovascular mortality. Catheter- based renal denervation causes substantial and sustained blood- pressure reduction in patients with resistant hypertension. The purpose of RENSYMPIS is to study the effects of renal denervation on: 1. Cardiovascular function 2. Metabolic factors 3. Inflammatory and endocrine factors 4. Coagulation 5. Sleep
The DEPART study end points are to provide conclusive evidence, using a randomized, double blinded, sham procedure controlled study design, that radiofrequency renal denervation: 1. reduces daytime ambulatory blood pressure, 2. improves nocturnal dipping in blood pressure at the ambulatory blood pressure recording.
