Overview
Watch this broadcast on-demand to learn about uRDN clinical data and how to implement this therapy in the real world to treat patients with hypertension. We join Prof Joachim Weil (Sana Hospital Lübeck, DE) who will be moderating this session, alongside Dr Joost Daemen (Erasmus University Hospital, NL) and Prof Atul Pathak (Princess Grace Hospital, FR) who will be discussing the latest clinical results and who should be treated with uRDN.
Ultrasound Renal Denervation (uRDN) is an innovative therapy option for the treatment of uncontrolled hypertension. uRDN therapy is delivered in a minimally invasive procedure that may lower high blood pressure by treating overactive renal nerves with ultrasound energy.
