ABSTRACT
Increased activation of the sympathetic nervous system is identified as an important factor in the development and progression of hypertension. In this context, a catheter-based approach has been developed to disrupt the renal sympathetic nerves, i.e. renal denervation. Among patients with resistant hypertension, it is very important to select patients using standardized stepwise screening. The potential success of renal denervation depends on the ability to select patients most likely to benefit. A multidisciplinary meeting in necessary. In this work, we describe the potential reasons for excluding patients from treatment with renal denervation.
