Selecting patients for interventional procedures to treat hypertension.
Blood pressure(2023)
摘要
Interventional approaches to treat hypertension are an emerging option that may be suitable for patients whose BP control cannot be achieved with lifestyle and/or pharmacotherapy and possibly for those who do not wish to take drug therapy. Interventional strategies include renal denervation with radiofrequency, ultrasound and alcohol-mediated platforms as well as baroreflex activation therapy and cardiac neuromodulation therapy. Presently renal denervation is the most advanced of the therapeutic options and is currently being commercialised in the EU. It is apparent that RDN is effective in both unmedicated patients and patients with more severe hypertension including those with resistant hypertension. However, at present there is no evidence for the use of RDN in patients with secondary forms of hypertension and thus evaluation to rule these out is necessary before proceeding with a procedure. Furthermore, there are numerous pitfalls in the diagnosis and management of secondary hypertension which need to be taken into consideration. Finally, prior to performing an intervention it is appropriate to document presence/absence of hypertension-mediated organ damage.
