Therefore, it is of paramount importance that hypertension experts debate the merits of RDN by revealing and expressing their personal beliefs and perspectives regarding this procedure. Methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted among Greek leaders of the Hypertension Excellence Centers with the use of a closed-type questionnaire specifically designed to elicit information and evaluate the respondent's views and perspectives about RDN efficacy, safety and ideal target patient population. Results: A total of 36 participants completed the survey. Based on the results, RDN was considered efficient (91.7%) and safe (94.5%), while the overwhelming majority of the participants felt confident in the long-term efficacy (88.9%) of the intervention and that it lacks reliable predictors of blood pressure response (94.5%). Patients with resistant (91.7%), ultra-resistant (94.4%), and uncontrolled hypertension (80.6%) were suggested as ideal candidates for RDN. Establishing a close co-operation between interventionalists and hypertension experts was considered essential to ensure the efficacy (97.2%) as well as the safety (97.3%) of the procedure. Conclusion: The vast majority of Greek hypertension experts surveyed were convinced of the efficacy and safety of RDN based on the preponderance of available scientific and clinical data. Identification of the ideal patient group remains controversial. Respondents generally agreed on the necessity of building close collaborative relationships between interventionalists and hypertension experts in order to improve RDN clinical outcome.Michael DoumasEmmanouil AndreadisMarkos AndronoglouPeriklis DavlourosKyriakos DimitriadisEugene GkaliagkousiHarris GrassosApostolos HatzitoliosPanagiotis IliakisRigas KalaitzidisEmmanouil KallistratosAlexandros KasiakogiasDimitrios KonstantinidisVasilios KotsisThomas MakrisAthanasios ManolisAthanasios MouliasMaria MarketouIoannis PapadakisDimitrios PapadopoulosLeonidas PoulimenosElias SanidasPantelis SarafidisChristos SavopoulosGeorge StergiouFotis TatakisKonstantinos ThomopoulosHelen TriantafyllidiAreti TriantafyllouDimitrios VlachakosPantelis ZebekakisAntonios ZiakasVasilios PapademetriouCostas TsioufisElsevierarticlerenal denervationhypertensionsafetyefficacyGreek hypertension expertsDiseases of the circulatory (Cardiovascular) systemRC666-701ENHellenic Journal of Cardiology, Vol 62, Iss 5, Pp 355-358 (2021)
