Profound Sustained Hypotension Following Renal Denervation: A Dramatic Success?
نویسندگان
چکیده
A 67-year-old woman with drug-refractory essential hypertension was admitted for renal sympathetic denervation (RDN). The secondary causes of hypertension were fully investigated in this patient. A 24-h ambulatory blood pressure (BP) monitor documented a mean daytime BP of 172/101 mmHg, a mean nighttime BP of 151/84 mmHg, and an overall mean BP of 167/97 mmHg despite compliance with metoprolol (50 mg twice daily), amlodipine (10 mg once daily), lisinopril (20 mg once daily), prazosin (2 mg thrice daily), and hydrochlorothiazide (50 mg once daily).

Differential control of adrenal and renal sympathetic nerve activity during hemorrhagic hypotension in rats.
The reflex mechanisms that produce the neurocirculatory adjustments to hemorrhagic hypotension are incompletely understood. The goal of this study was to determine if hemorrhagic hypotension in rats produces differential effects on sympathetic outflow to the adrenal gland and kidney and if the two sympathetic nerve responses are governed by different reflex mechanisms. We performed simultaneous...
متن کاملMouse Anaphylactic Hypotension Is Characterized by Initial Baroreflex Independent Renal Sympathoinhibition Followed by Sustained Renal Sympathoexcitation
Aim: The hemodynamic response to mouse systemic anaphylaxis is characterized by an initial hypertension followed by sustained hypotension. However, the defense mechanisms of the sympathetic nervous system against this circulatory disturbance is not known. Here, we investigated the renal sympathetic nerve activity (RSNA) response to mouse systemic anaphylaxis, along with the roles of carotid sin...
متن کاملRenal denervation does not abolish sustained baroreflex-mediated reductions in arterial pressure.
Recent studies indicate that suppression of renal sympathetic nerve activity and attendant increments in renal excretory function are sustained baroreflex-mediated responses in hypertensive animals. Given the central role of the kidneys in long-term regulation of arterial pressure, we hypothesized that the chronic blood pressure-lowering effects of the baroreflex are critically dependent on int...
متن کاملProfound hypotension immediately following insertion of methyl methacrylate during bipolar endoprosthesis in a patient with long-term levodopa-treated paralysis agitans.
Insertion of methyl methacrylate polymer into newly reamed bony cavities has sometimes resulted in profound hypotension, cardiac arrest, or sudden death which are more common in patients with hemodynamic instability or hypovolemia. In paralysis agitans(Parkinson's disease), dramatic worsening of the disease often occurs when another illness or trauma accompanies it. And it is possible that chro...
متن کاملParticipation of central serotonergic neurons in the control of the circulation of the unanesthetized rabbit. A study using 5,6-dihydroxytryptamine in experimental neurogenic and renal hypertension.
The role of central serotonergic neurons in circulatory control was studied in rabbits given intracisternal injections of 5,6-dihydroxytryptamine (5,6-DHT, 300 ̂ g/kg) to cause degeneration of central serotonergic nerve terminals and depletion of central serotonin stores. In normal rabbits, intracisternally administered 5,6-DHT produced decreases in mean arterial blood pressure (11%, P < 0.001) ...
