The ReDy™ System (Renal Dynamics) is a renal denervation device incorporating a variety of ablation features and technical improvements over previously designed systems into a single product. It is intended to treat uncontrolled (drug-resistant) hypertension by RF ablation of the sympathetic nerve network surrounding the renal arteries.
This study will be carried out to validate the safety and the efficacy of the ReDy™ Renal Denervation device and to demonstrate that it performs according to its intended use, i.e. the treatment of patients with uncontrolled hypertension.
