The SymplicityTM Renal Denervation System  Medtronic offers a
novel and innovative therapy for treatment-resistant
hypertension. The SymplicityTM renal denervation system is
specifically designed to deliver low-level radio frequency (RF)
energy through the wall of the renal artery to achieve renal
denervation (RDN).  The Symplicity renal denervation system
consists of the SymplicityTM catheter and the SymplicityTM
generator. These two components work in concert to deliver the
optimal energy required to achieve safe, superior, and sustained
blood pressure reductions for patients who, until this point,
have been unable to achieve target blood pressure levels despite
multiple prescription medications, and are considered to be
treatment-resistant.1,2  RDN Symplicity Catheter   SymplicityTM
