Chang Wook JeongKorea (Republic of) Moderator Extravasculare Renal Denervation to Treat Resistant HypertensionResistant hypertension is defined as uncontrolled blood pressure above the target, despite the concurrent use of three or more antihypertensive medications. Individuals with resistant hypertension are at a high risk for severe cardiovascular events and mortality. Managing resistant hypertension is challenging, and many non-pharmacological treatments, including renal denervation (RDN), have been introduced. This presentation will demonstrate the surgical technique of the extravascular RDN (eRDN) using the HyperQure™ System performed as part of the first-in-human trial. The surgeries were performed as a retroperitoneal approach in a modified prone position. The preliminary results will be presented, too. In the United States, a prospective, multicenter, early feasibility study is also underway.
