Summary

INSPiRED is a multicenter parallel-group trial comparing usual medical treatment (control group) or usual medical treatment plus renal denervation (intervention). In both groups adherence will be monitored both before randomization and during 36 months of follow-up.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion criteria

  • Women and men are eligible. Women of reproductive age should apply effective contraception.
  • Age ranges from 20 years (inclusive) to less than 70 years.
  • Patients should have essential hypertension.
  • Treatment-resistant hypertension in patients taking a stable drug regimen for at least 4 weeks consisting of 3 or more antihypertensive medications from different classes, including a diuretic.
  • Under maximal therapy, office blood pressure should be ≥140/90 mmHg and the 24-h ambulatory blood pressure should be 130 mm Hg systolic or 80 mm Hg diastolic or higher.
  • eGFR must be ≥ 60 mL/min/1.73 m2.
  • The patients should accept to have adherence checked before randomisation and during supervised follow-up, but both patients and doctors will remain blinded to the results;
  • Informed written consent.

Exclusion criteria

  • Suboptimal clinical context, because of recent history or concurrent disease.
  • Isolated systolic and diastolic hypertension.
  • Body-mass index ≥ 40kg/m2.
  • The anatomy of the renal arteries is suboptimal for renal denervation.
  • Pregnancy.
  • Alcohol or substance abuse or psychiatric illnesses.
  • Participation in other study.
  • The clinical context is suboptimal for renal denervation.
