Brief summary
The Covidien OneShot™ ablation system use is to deliver low-level radio frequency (RF) energy through the wall of the renal artery to denervate the human kidney.
Detailed description
Unique to the OneShot™ ablation system is the ability to deliver the desired helical treatment pattern for optimal Renal Denervation (RDN) with a single balloon based-treatment, eliminating user variance inherent in the currently available point-by-point approach. In addition, technological improvements have been incorporated. The OneShot™ RF generator has a touchscreen, user friendly interface; catheter advancement is made safer with the use of a guidewire; two radiopaque markers on the catheter enable more precise device positioning; and the irrigated catheter tip reduces the risk of overheating and clot formation during RF delivery. By offering a more reliable single treatment approach, coupled with enhanced ease-of use and reduced procedure times, this technology has the potential to significantly expand clinical adoption of catheter-based renal sympathetic denervation.
Interventions
Placed percutaneously, the OneShot™ balloon catheter is advanced into the renal artery using a routine femoral approach in a cardiac catheterization laboratory setting. RF is applied with pre-programmed time and intensity in each of the renal arteries.

Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
1. Systolic blood pressure ≥ 160 mmHg despite treatment with a regimen of 3 or more anti-hypertensive medications that includes a diuretic and that has been stable for 2 weeks prior to screening. 2. Age 18-85 years. 3. Able to provide informed consent and comply with follow-up visits.
Exclusion criteria
1. Diameter of left or right renal artery less than 4 mm or greater than 7mm. 2. Length of target segment of left or right renal artery less than 20mm. 3.
