BLOOD PRESSURE PROCEDURE
The renal denervation blood pressure procedure is a single, minimally invasive procedure.
Learn what to expect from the renal denervation blood pressure procedure.
The procedure is done in a hospital. Some people stay overnight and go home the next day, but others go home the same day. Your doctor will make this decision.
Every hospital has its own approach, but generally speaking the procedure takes about an hour. This does not include the time it takes to prepare for the procedure or recover from the procedure.
After you are given medication to make you relaxed, sleepy, and comfortable, your doctor makes a small incision and inserts a very thin tube (catheter) into the artery leading to the kidney. The doctor then uses the catheter to calm the excessive activity of the nerves connected to the kidney. The tube is removed, leaving no device behind.
