The Impact on Central Blood Pressure and Arterial Stiffness Post Renal Denervation in Patients With Stage 3 and 4 Chronic Kidney Disease: The Prairie Renal Denervation Study.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Central aortic blood pressures and arterial stiffness are better indicators of cardiovascular outcomes than brachial blood pressures. However, their response to renal denervation (RDN) in patients with stage 3 and stage 4 chronic kidney disease (CKD) has not yet been examined. OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the impact of RDN on central blood pressures, brachial (office and ambulatory) blood pressures, arterial stiffness, glomerular filtration rate (GFR), 24-hour urine protein, and selective cardiac parameters observed on echocardiograms. DESIGN:Single-center, single-arm with pre-RDN/post-RDN follow-up. SETTING:Patients are being recruited from the multidisciplinary CKD clinic. PATIENTS:Fifty consecutive patients with stage 3 or stage 4 CKD and resistant hypertension, with no radiological or laboratory evidence of secondary causes of hypertension. MEASUREMENTS:The key measurements are central blood pressures, pulse wave velocity, ambulatory 24-hour blood pressure, office blood pressures on BP Tru, GFR, 24-hour urine protein and sodium, blood pressure medication, and doses. METHODS:For our primary outcome, we will compare changes in central blood pressures from baseline to 6 months post RDN using a paired t test or Mann-Whitney U test. Secondary outcomes will examine changes in central blood pressures from baseline to 3, 12, 18, and 24 months post RDN as well as changes in office pressures, GFR, 24-hour urine protein and sodium, and medications at all time points using mixed-model analyses of variance or Friedman test. Multiple regression may be used to control for potential covariates. LIMITATIONS:Single-center study, with no sham arm. CONCLUSIONS:Aortic blood pressure, rather than brachial blood pressure, optimally reflects the load placed on the left ventricle. Aortic blood pressure is also better associated with cardiovascular outcomes. If our study shows a preferential decrease in central blood pressures and improvements in cardiac parameters on echocardiograms post RDN, this may influence the way in which blood pressures are managed in clinics and offices.

Project description:Background:Central aortic blood pressures and arterial stiffness are better indicators of cardiovascular outcomes than brachial blood pressures. However, their response to renal denervation (RDN) in patients with Stage 3 and Stage 4 chronic kidney disease (CKD) has not yet been examined. Objective:To evaluate the impact of RDN on central blood pressures (CBP), brachial (office and ambulatory) blood pressures, arterial stiffness, glomerular filtration rate (GFR), 24-hour urine protein, and selective cardiac parameters observed on echocardiograms. Design:Single-center, single-arm with pre-/post-RDN follow-up. Setting:Patients were recruited from the multidisciplinary CKD clinic, Regina General Hospital, Canada. Patients:About 25 consecutive patients with Stage 3 or Stage 4 CKD and resistant hypertension, with no radiological or laboratory evidence of secondary causes of hypertension. Measurements:The key measurements were CBP, pulse wave velocity, ambulatory 24-hour blood pressure, office blood pressures on BP Tru, GFR, 24-hour urine protein and sodium, dose and number of blood pressure medication and doses. Methods:The primary outcome measure was the change in CBP from baseline to 6 months post-RDN. Secondary outcome measures included changes in CBP, office blood pressure, 24-hour ambulatory pressures, pulse wave velocity, kidney function (eGFR and 24-hour protein excretion), and the change in the number and dose of medications during the 2-year follow-up period. The primary outcome and the secondary outcomes were evaluated using a Friedman's analysis of variance (ANOVA) and Wilcoxon signed-rank test for changes from post RDN procedure. Bonferroni correction was used to adjust P values for multiple testing. A two-sided alpha of .05 was used. Results:Median central blood pressures (mm Hg) were 127/75 at baseline versus 118/70 at 6 months and 118/67 at 24 months (P = .13). Median office blood pressures (mm Hg) were 148/76 at baseline versus 135/75 at 6 months and 133/75 at 24 months (P ? .001). Median ambulatory 24-hour day (mm Hg) was 148/64 at baseline and 146/68 at 6 months and 152/67 at 24 months (P = .60). Median pulse wave velocity (m/s) at baseline was 13.8 at baseline versus 13.3 m/s at 6 months and 12.3 at 12 months' time (P = .62). Estimated glomerular filtration rate (mL/min/1.73m2) at baseline was 37, at 6 months was 36 and 34 at 24 months (P = .33). Limitations:Single-center study, with no sham arm. Conclusions:Our study demonstrates that there was a significant improvement in office blood pressures from baseline to 6 months, maintained to 24 months. There was a numerical improvement in central pressures, and pulse wave velocity at 6 and 24 months, with no sustained changes noted in 24-hour blood pressure. Kidney function remained at or near baseline throughout the 24 months of observation. Trial registration:ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT01832233).

Project description:BackgroundRenal denervation (RDN) has emerged as an adjacent option for the treatment of hypertension. This analysis of the Erlanger registry aimed to compare the blood pressure (BP)-lowering effects and safety of RDN in patients with and without chronic kidney disease (CKD).MethodsIn this single-center retrospective analysis, 47 patients with and 127 without CKD underwent radiofrequency-, ultrasound- or alcohol-infusion-based RDN. Office and 24-h ambulatory BP and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) were measured at baseline, and after 6 and 12 months.ResultsA total of 174 patients with a mean age of 59.0 ± 10 years were followed up for 12 months. At baseline, mean eGFR was 55.8 ± 21 mL/min/1.73 m2 in patients with CKD and 87.3 ± 13 mL/min/1.73 m2 in patients without CKD. There was no significant eGFR decline in either of the groups during 12 months of follow-up. In patients without CKD, office systolic and diastolic BP were reduced by -15.3 ± 17.5/-7.9 ± 10.8 mmHg 6 months after RDN and by -16.1 ± 18.2/-7.7 ± 9.6 mmHg 12 months after RDN. In patients with CKD, office systolic and diastolic BP were reduced by -10.7 ± 24.0/-5.8 ± 13.2 mmHg 6 months after RDN and by -15.1 ± 24.9/-5.9 ± 12.9 mmHg 12 months after RDN. Accordingly, in patients without CKD, 24-h ambulatory systolic and diastolic BP were reduced by -7.2 ± 15.8/-4.9 ± 8.8 mmHg 6 months after RDN and by -9.0 ± 17.0/-6.2 ± 9.8 mmHg 12 months after RDN. In patients with CKD, 24-h systolic and diastolic BP were reduced by -7.4 ± 12.9/-4.2 ± 9.9 mmHg 6 months after RDN and by -8.0 ± 14.0/-3.6 ± 9.6 mmHg 12 months after RDN. There was no difference in the reduction of office and 24-h ambulatory BP between the two groups at any time point (all P > .2). Similar results have been found for the 6 months data. With exception of rare local adverse events, we did not observe any safety signals.ConclusionAccording to our single-center experience, we observed a similar reduction in 24-h, day and night-time ambulatory BP as well as in-office BP in patients with and without CKD at any time point up to 12 months. We conclude that RDN is an effective and safe treatment option for patients with hypertension and CKD.
