الوصف: The renal nerves contribute to hypertension through effects in the kidney that enhance sodium retention and renin secretion, and by effects in the central nervous system that increase systemic sympathetic activity. Therefore, targeting the renal nerves provides a logical basis for treating hypertension. Several trials of renal denervation––achieved by applying radiofrequency energy through catheters placed in the renal arteries–– have been completed. Clinical results have been inconsistent, however, partly because of factors related to the ablation technique and partly because these studies have been performed in patients with the inadequately defined clinical condition of “treatment-resistant hypertension.” This statement now explains our conclusion that future studies of renal denervation should be guided by the established randomized, controlled clinical trial designs used for studying antihypertensive drugs and other treatments for hypertension. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
