Change in blood pressure and other relevant parameters after RDN
| N | Mean change compared to baseline (95 % CI) | |
|---|---|---|
| Ambulatory blood pressure | ||
| 24-h systolic (mmHg) | 43 | −5.7 (−11.0 to −0.4) |
| 24-h diastolic (mmHg) | 43 | −4.0 (−6.6 to −1.4) |
| 24-h heart rate (bpm) | 35 | −1.1 (−3.8 to 1.7) |
| Day-time systolic (mmHg) | 39 | −8.2 (−13.4 to −3.0) |
| Day-time diastolic (mmHg) | 39 | −4.9 (−7.9 to −2.5) |
| Nighttime systolic (mmHg) | 38 | −6.3 (−14.1 to 1.4) |
| Nighttime diastolic (mmHg) | 38 | −4.8 (−9.9 to 0.4) |
| Office blood pressure | ||
| Systolic (mmHg) | 47 | −13.1 (−20.4 to −5.7) |
| Diastolic (mmHg) | 47 | −4.4 (−7.8 to −1.1) |
| Heart rate (bpm) | 25 | −2.6 (−6.7 to 1.5) |
| Body mass index (kg/m2) | 25 | 0.5 (−0.9 to 1.9) |
| eGFR, CKD epi (mL/min/1.73 m2) | 48 | 0.4 (−1.9 to 2.8) |
| Urinary sodium excretion (mmol/24 h) | 16 | −23.3 (−89.3 to 42.7) |
N represents the number of patients with information on the variable of interest at baseline and at follow-up
Body mass index is the weight in kilograms divided by the square of the height in meters
Bpm beats per minute, eGFR estimated glomerular filtration rate
