Summary: Clinical studies and renal artery innervation patterns suggest that the efficacy of RF renal denervation (RDN) increases with increasing number of electrode treatments. We evaluated efficacy and safety of the low profile, 9-electrode, over-the-wire, RF ‘basket’catheter, along with simultaneous bipolar/unipolar therapy algorithm ReDy™system (Renal Dynamics, NJ) in pigs.
