Early Renal Denervation Attenuates Cardiac Dysfunction in Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction.

Our data demonstrate that early RF-RDN therapy protects against HFpEF disease progression in part due to the attenuation of renal fibrosis and inflammation. In contrast, the renoprotective and left ventricular functional improvements were lost when RF-RDN was performed in later HFpEF progression. These results suggest that RDN may be a viable treatment option for HFpEF during the early stages of this systemic inflammatory disease.
