Nerve-blocking treatment for high blood pressure with the Netrod system
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests a procedure that uses radiofrequency energy to calm overactive kidney nerves, which may help lower blood pressure. It is designed for people whose blood pressure remains high despite standard care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 70 years old.
- Your office blood pressure is consistently high: top number 150–179 mmHg and bottom number 90–109 mmHg.
- Your average daytime blood pressure from a 24-hour monitor is at least 140/90 mmHg.
- You are not pregnant and will not become pregnant during the study.
- You have two healthy kidneys with suitable arteries for the procedure.
- You have no history of kidney stenting or a previous kidney nerve ablation.

This study tests a new treatment that uses a device to calm overactive nerves in the kidneys, which may help lower high blood pressure. It is for people who are already taking at least two blood pressure medications and still have high readings.
This study is for people with high blood pressure who are already using or planning to use the Netrod RDN system, a device that uses radiofrequency energy to treat the nerves around the kidneys. The study aims to see how well this system controls blood pressure in real life.
This trial tests a new way to perform a procedure called renal denervation, which uses radio waves to calm overactive kidney nerves that can raise blood pressure. By getting feedback during the procedure, doctors hope to make the treatment more effective for people with high blood pressure.
This trial tests a procedure that targets nerves near the kidney (renal denervation) to help lower blood pressure in people whose hypertension is not controlled despite medication. It uses a special 3D mapping system to guide the procedure.
This trial tests a procedure that uses a catheter through the wrist or thigh to quiet overactive nerves in the kidney artery. It aims to lower blood pressure in people whose high blood pressure stays uncontrolled despite using multiple blood pressure medicines.
This study tests a procedure called renal denervation to treat mild hypertension (high blood pressure) in people not taking medication. It uses radio waves to calm overactive kidney nerves, which may help lower blood pressure.
