Hypertension: Renal denervation-promising data from the DENERHTN trial.
In patients with resistant hypertension, renal denervation plus standardized stepped-care antihypertensive treatment (SSAHT) resulted in significant blood-pressure lowering compared with SSAHT alone. These new data from the DENERHTN trial may indicate that despite the failure of SYMPLICITY HTN-3, there is light at the end of the tunnel for renal denervation.
