Conditions

Summary

Renal denervation (RDN) is a recent procedure that can be used to control BP (blood pressure) in hypertensive patients. Numerous publications from randomised trials have demonstrated the efficacy of RDN in this indication. The latest guidelines now include RDN as an effective technique for use in hypertension. Since early 2023, RDN using Medtronic's Spiral radiofrequency system has benefited from transitional authorisation for reimbursement by the French health insurance system. An application for reimbursement is underway for the ultrasound system. We aim to compile an exhaustive prospective register of all procedures carried out in France over the next few years, regardless of the type of catheter used or the context in which the procedure was carried out (transitional reimbursement, industrial register, randomised trial). Our aim is to assess the efficacy and safety of the procedure within the French healthcare system, the characteristics of patients benefiting from the procedure, the centres performing renal denervation, and the care pathways used, and to be able to present all this data, independently of the industry, to the healthcare authorities when it comes time to reassess the value of this procedure and its indications. The goal of this observational study is to learn about changes in blood pressure in patient with high blood pressure before and 1 year after a renal denervation treatment (RDN). The primary endpoint is to describe changes in systolic blood pressure (SBP) measured by Home Blood Pressure Measurement (HBPM) in patients suffering from high blood pressure, before and 1 year after RDN.

Min Age: 18 Years

Plain Language Summary

Simplified for easier understanding

This registry study is collecting real-world data from patients in France who have been treated with renal denervation — a minimally invasive procedure that uses heat or ultrasound to disrupt the nerves around the kidney arteries to help lower resistant high blood pressure. The goal is to understand how well this procedure works in everyday clinical practice. **You may be eligible if...** - You are an adult (over 18 years old) - You have high blood pressure and have been treated with the renal denervation procedure in France - This includes patients treated in the past (retrospective data may be included) **You may NOT be eligible if...** - You have not undergone or been offered the renal denervation procedure - You object to your health data being collected and used for research purposes Talk to your doctor to see if this trial is right for you.
