Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Rate of all adverse events

    rate of major adverse events for 1 month after the treatment

    From baseline to 1 month post-procedure

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Ambulatory SBP change at 3,6,12,24 months

    From baseline to 3, 6, 12, 24 months post-procedure

  • Office SBP change at 1, 3, 6, 12, 18, 24 months

    From baseline to 1, 3, 6, 12, 18, 24 months post-procedure

  • Percentage of decreased office SBP >10, 15, 20 mmHg

    From baseline to 1, 3, 6, 12, 18, 24 months post-procedure

Study Arms (1)

Renal denervation therapy group

EXPERIMENTAL

The subject treated by renal denervation by using DENEX system.

Device: Renal denervation

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.
