Summary

Consult this session on interventional neuromodulation to learn more about the importance of sympathetic overactivity in the pathophysiology of heart failure, arrhythmias, and renal insufficiency and appraise the available and upcoming evidence.

Learning Objectives

  • To review the importance of sympathetic overactivity in the pathophysiology of heart failure, arrhythmias, and renal insufficiency
  • To critically appraise the available and upcoming evidence
  • To discuss the potential new indications for renal denervation
