About this trial

To assess the safety and effectiveness of renal artery denervation with subsequent splanchnic nerves denervation via catheter-based radiofrequency ablation in improving blood pressure and glycemic control in patients with resistant hypertension and type 2 diabetes.

Eligibility criteria

Qualifiers

Patients aged 18-75.

History of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus at least 5 years prior to enrollment.

HbA1c level ≥6.5%

Use of at least 1 oral antidiabetic agent and no changes in the last 30 days.

Disqualifiers

Estimated glomerular filtration rate of less than 30 mL/min per 1.73m2.

Type 1 diabetes mellitus.

History of aortic pathologies such as aneurysm or dissection confirmed by immediate preprocedural angiography that would preclude the Endovascular Denervation (EDN) procedure.

Orthostatic hypotension.
