Clinical trial
Sympathetic renal denervation versus increment of pharmacological treatment in resistant arterial hypertension
To determine the effect of a percutaneous catheter-based renal sympathetic denervation (RSD) procedure to disrupt renal afferent and efferent nerves using radiofrequency ablation, on 24h ambulatory systolic blood pressure (SBP), in subjects with resistant hypertension (RH), as compared to the addition of spironolactone, an aldosterone receptor blocker, to the baseline pharmacological treatment, from baseline (Visit 0) to Final Examination (Week 24).
