Aims: The present study aimed to evaluate the potential of social media as an approach to recruit hypertensive subjects.
Methods And Results: In addition to conventional trial recruitment, Facebook ads were run. Over a 115-day recruitment period, Facebook reached 5.
Objectives: First-generation radiofrequency renal denervation devices may have had limited efficacy due to incomplete circumferential ablation and dependence on individual operator technique. This study evaluated a next-generation catheter-based technology using ultrasound designed to maximize nerve coverage using circumferential ultrasound energy.
Methods: This was a prospective, multicenter, nonrandomized, postmarket study evaluating the safety and efficacy of an endovascular ultrasound renal denervation system (Paradise) in patients who met the European Society of Hypertension/European Society of Cardiology definition of resistant hypertension.
Aims: To evaluate a novel modality utilising ultrasound for renal denervation designed to reduce the duration of the intervention as well as to increase the consistency of the clinical outcome.
Methods And Results: Eleven consecutive patients suffering from resistant hypertension as defined by the ESH-ESC guidelines were treated by transcatheter renal denervation using the CE-marked PARADISE™ technology (ReCor Medical, Ronkonkoma, NY, USA). An average of 5.
Aims: To evaluate the potential for mitral annular (MA) size reduction using a novel device utilising therapeutic ultrasound (TU).
Methods And Results: The ReCor device (ReCor Medical, Inc., Ronkonkoma, NY, USA, Investigational device, not for use in human application) was studied in a closed chest canine animal model (35 dogs).
