About this study
In plain language
The RADIANCE CED study looks at how well ultrasound renal denervation lowers blood pressure over time. This treatment uses ultrasound to treat nerves near the kidneys. The study uses health records of adults age 65 or older who qualify for Medicare and have high blood pressure that is not controlled.
The RADIANCE CED study is a prospective observational study designed to evaluate the long-term effectiveness of ultrasound renal denervation in lowering blood pressure among patients with uncontrolled hypertension. Data will be collected from electronic health records (EHRs) of Medicare-eligible patients to support generalizability of outcomes to the broader Medicare population. Individual hospital enrollment is not required for this study and IRB exemption has been received by sponsor.
Compensation is read from the study's own description and may be missing — always confirm with the study team.
Eligibility
