Thursday, December 20, 2012 Duar! Arteri Ginjal Diledakkan 30 Menit, Tensi pun Turun

Jakarta, this time high blood pressure can be treated with changes in diet or consumption of drugs that lower blood pressure. But has now found a new procedure uses radio waves to destroy overactive nerves around the kidneys to help relieve high blood pressure, aka hypertension.
Minimally invasive procedure called catheter-based renal denervation (catheter-based renal denervation) using a probe or some sort of wire that is inserted through the femoral artery (major artery in the thigh) which will be issued a 'shot' of intense radio waves to destroy nerves in about kidney acting overly active in hypertensive patients, especially those that are susceptible to certain drugs.
The team of researchers from Australia who created this technique believe that the procedure lasted for 30 minutes is going to revolutionize the treatment of high blood pressure to end the use of certain pills to normalize blood pressure.
"Because achieving a significant reduction in blood pressure, reduction in levels of heart attack and stroke in patients can reach more than 40 percent," said lead researcher Professor Murray Esler of Baker IDI Heart and Diabetes Institute in Melbourne, Australia, reports the Daily Mail, Thursday (12/20/2012).
"Kidney participants had suffered no damage and functional disability. Means there is no negative effect on the long-term health of patients affected by this procedure," he continued.
The findings, published in the journal Circulation also shows that six months after treatment with this procedure, 83 percent of patients reported a decrease in systolic blood pressure of at least 10 milliliters of mercury, while 79 percent of patients in the same group known to be able to maintain it until the year-long decline.
Responding to the study, Professor Gareth Beevers of Blood preasure UK stated, "The procedure is very attractive because it can treat so many patients with hypertension and blood pressure returns to normal levels. Even so the procedure will lead to the use of drugs control blood pressure becomes obsolete .
