Systematic Review: Renal denervation may have a modest effect in improving 24h ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (reduction in SBP by 5.29 mmHg and DBP by 3.75 mmHg) but does not improve major cardiovascular outcomes and renal function.

M-A: Renal denervation for hypertension is associated with a modest reduction in ambulatory blood pressure control (3.61 mm Hg reduction in ambulatory systolic BP and 1.85 mm Hg reduction in ambulatory diastolic BP).

#ACC21 – RCT: Among patients with resistant hypertension, ultrasound renal denervation resulted in a modest improvement in systolic BP (–4.5 mm Hg) vs. sham procedure.
