What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.

Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.

Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.

Summary

This registry follows 5,000 people with high blood pressure who undergo a procedure called renal denervation. The procedure uses a catheter to deliver radiofrequency energy to nerves in the kidney arteries, which may help lower blood pressure. Participants are tracked for up to 5 years to see how safe and effective the procedure is in real-world settings.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Renal denervation procedure using a catheter that delivers radiofrequency energy to nerves in the kidney arteries
What this could lead to
If successful, this could confirm that renal denervation is a safe and effective long-term option for lowering blood pressure in patients with uncontrolled hypertension.
What could go wrong
This is an observational registry, not a randomized trial, so results may be influenced by patient selection and other factors. The procedure carries risks like artery damage or bleeding, and not all patients may respond.
