Patients with resistant hypertension and chronic kidney disease (GFR between 15 and 60) will receive Renal Denervation as a treatment

Chronic Kidney Disease

The Symplicity Renal Denervation System is indicated for the delivery of low-level radiofrequency energy through the wall of the renal artery to denervate the kidney and reduce blood pressure in adult patients with refractory hypertension. The Symplicity Generator delivers controlled relatively low power radiofrequency energy (approximately 8 watts for 2 minutes). The Symplicity System selectively denervates the kidney by delivering radiofrequency from the generator via the electrode of the catheter through the renal artery wall from the intra-luminal side to ablate the renal sympathetic efferent and afferent nerves and reduce overall sympathetic nervous system activity.

Renal Denervation in Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease

Prairie Renal Denervation Study

measured using ATCOR machine: Augmentation index (%) Augmentation pressure (mm Hg) Central pulse pressure (mm Hg) Central systolic pressure (mm Hg) Central diastolic pressure (mm Hg) Pulse pressure amplification (mm Hg) Time to reflection (Tr) in ms Pulse Wave Velocity

Using an echocardiogram, the following cardiac measures will be taken:
Left ventricle volume Left ventricle hypertrophy Left ventricle function Left atrial mass E-wave velocity E-prime velocity

systolic and diastolic blood pressure (mm Hg) measured using BP-Tru machine.

systolic and diastolic blood pressure (mm Hg) measured using BP-Tru machine

For 24-hour blood pressure, we will record the following:
12-hour daytime Systolic Pressure (mm Hg) 12-hour daytime Diastolic Pressure (mm Hg) 12-hour nighttime Systolic Pressure (mm Hg) 12-hour nighttime Diastolic Pressure (mm Hg)
