Nerve-Zapping trial offers hope for dialysis patients with untamable blood pressure

NCT ID NCT06556407

Summary

This study is testing if a procedure called renal denervation is safe and can lower blood pressure in a small group of dialysis patients with severe, treatment-resistant high blood pressure. The procedure uses ultrasound to calm overactive nerves in the kidneys, which are thought to drive dangerously high blood pressure. Researchers will carefully monitor 12 patients for six months to check for safety and see if their 24-hour blood pressure improves.
