About Hypertension

Get the facts about high blood pressure

What is high blood pressure?

Blood pressure measures how strongly blood pushes against your arteries. It’s high if it measures 140/90 mmHg or more on two different days.

Over 1 billion people worldwide affected

High blood pressure affects 1.28 billion people worldwide, including men and women, young and old, people who are fit, people with other health problems, and many others.

Risks

With no symptoms, high blood pressure silently increases the risk of severe health complications such as:

Heart Attacks

Strokes

Kidney Failure

Stroke by 27%

Heart failure by 28%

Cardiovascular events by 20%

Beyond Medication

Offers lasting reductions without adding pills to your daily regimen.

Minimally Invasive

Single, minimally invasive procedure, takes about an hour, with most patients resuming normal activities within a week.

Leaves no Implant Behind

The procedure involves a small incision and a temporary catheter to calm overactive kidney nerves, with no device left in the body after completion.

Think beyond the typical treatments

What to Expect with RDN Therapy

It offers another way to achieve long-term blood pressure reductions without the potential side effects of medications.

While it may not reduce the number of medications you take, the RDN procedure lowers high blood pressure without adding another pill to your daily routine.

RDN may be an option if you are on three or more medications and still cannot control your blood pressure, or if your physician determines that the therapy could benefit your cardiovascular health.

Important information about this procedure

Find a Hospital

When should I not consider RDN therapy?

- You are pregnant or have allergies to medications required for the procedure.
- Lowering your blood pressure would pose a risk to your health.
- Your doctor determines that your arteries are either too narrow or too wide for the catheter, or if other factors make the procedure too risky or ineffective.

What to expect on the day of the procedure?

The procedure is performed at a hospital and typically takes about an hour. Depending on your doctor’s recommendation, you may go home the same day or stay overnight for observation. During the procedure, you will be given medication to help you feel relaxed, sleepy, and comfortable. Once sedated, your doctor will make a small incision and insert a thin tube (catheter) into the artery leading to the kidney. The catheter is then used to calm the excessive activity of the nerves connected to the kidney. After the procedure, the tube is removed, leaving no implant behind.

What to expect after the procedure?

Most people can resume their normal activities within a week after the procedure, but your doctor will guide you on the appropriate timing. You may have two follow-up appointments: one with the doctor who performed the procedure and another with the doctor managing your high blood pressure. To support long-term results, maintaining a healthy lifestyle is essential. This includes regularly checking your blood pressure, following your doctor’s advice, taking prescribed medications, and making healthy choices regarding diet, exercise, and smoking.

How do I get this treatment?

To get the treatment, start by finding a hospital or clinic of your choice from the provided list. Contact them directly to schedule an appointment and discuss your eligibility for the procedure with a qualified doctor. Your healthcare provider will guide you through the next steps, including assessments and preparations for the treatment. Find a hospital.
