EnligHTN German Observational Study of Renal Denervation for Uncontrolled Hypertension

This is a Post Market, Multi-center, Open Label, Observational Study. Approximately 500 Subjects With Uncontrolled Hypertension Will Undergo Renal Artery Ablation

The purpose of this observational study is to further evaluate the safety and performance of the EnligHTN™ Renal Denervation System in the treatment of patients with uncontrolled hypertension in clinical routine practice.

This is a post market, multi-center, open label, observational study. Approximately 500 subjects with uncontrolled hypertension will undergo renal artery ablation at approximately 40 investigational sites located in Germany and will be followed for 1 year post procedure.The expected duration of the investigation will be approximately 4 years.

Inclusion Criteria:

• Subject has office Systolic Blood Pressure (SBP) ≥ 140 mmHg
• Subject has established hypertension (diagnosed ≥12 months prior to baseline) and is on a guideline based drug regimen at a stable (≥ 14 days) and a fully tolerated dose consisting of ≥3 anti-hypertensive medications (including 1 diuretic), or subject has documented drug intolerance to 2 or more of the 4 major classes of anti-hypertensives (ACE-I/ Angiotensin Receptor Blocker (ARB), Calcium Channel Blockers, Beta Blockers, or diuretic) and is unable to take 3 anti-hypertensive drugs

Exclusion Criteria:

• Subject has known significant renovascular abnormalities such as renal artery stenosis > 30%
