Study Arms (1)
Renal denervation therapy group
EXPERIMENTALThe subject treated by renal denervation by using DENEX system.
Interventions
DENEX catheter is a device to treat resistant hypertension which delivers high-frequency energy through the three electrodes connected to the catheter in order to cauterize sympathetic nerve bundle.
