Renal denervation therapy for resistant hypertension: a clinical update.

Por: C V S Ram1 y A S Kumar.   Journal of Human Hypertension (2014) 28, 699–704.

Severe hypertension (systolic blood pressure (BP) greater than or equal to160?mm?Hg) resistant to treatment with multiple antihypertensive medications, poses a serious challenge to therapeutic treatment. Catheter-based renal denervation (RDN) is being increasingly proposed and researched as a safe and effective method of treating this condition.
