A Pivotal, Multicenter, Blinded, Sham Procedure-Controlled Trial of Renal Denervation by the Peregrine System Kit in Subjects with Hypertension
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of renal denervation while still on blood pressure medications. Renal denervation is the destruction of nerve fibers that run along the kidney blood vessels. This causes an interruption of nerve signals that may cause high blood pressure. Therefore, the effectiveness of the study catheter and the alcohol (Peregrine Kit) will be assessed by how well the treatment reduces blood pressure.
Attend all visits, undergo an magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) or computed tomography angiography (CTA) and an electrocardiography (ECG) answer questions about health honestly and completely, and follow the instructions given by the study doctor, complete the subject diary
