Title: Wave IV Study: Phase II Randomized Sham Controlled Study of Renal Denervation for Subjects With Uncontrolled Hypertension
Brief Summary: To demonstrate that non-invasive renal denervation is safe and shows a net difference in blood pressure reduction when compared to sham in subjects with uncontrolled hypertension.


Options:
A: Inclusion Criteria:

* \>= 18 and =\< 70 years of age.
* systolic blood pressure \>=140mmHg (office);
* on 3 or more antihypertensive medications (including diuretic)
* mean daytime systolic ABPM \>= 135 mmHg
* obstructive sleep apnea (AHI \>=15 event/hour, indications for CPAP treatment)

Exclusion Criteria:

* renal artery abnormalities
* eGFR \< 60mL/min
* previous TIA, stroke, heart failure
* Type 1 diabetes
* ICD or pacemaker
* others
B: Inclusion criteria:

* Women and men are eligible. Women of reproductive age should apply effective contraception.
* Age ranges from 20 years (inclusive) to less than 70 years.
* Patients should have essential hypertension.
* Treatment-resistant hypertension in patients taking a stable drug regimen for at least 4 weeks consisting of 3 or more antihypertensive medications from different classes, including a diuretic.
* Under maximal therapy, office blood pressure should be ≥140/90 mmHg and the 24-h ambulatory blood pressure should be 130 mm Hg systolic or 80 mm Hg diastolic or higher.
* eGFR must be ≥ 60 mL/min/1.73 m2.
* The patients should accept to have adherence checked before randomisation and during supervised follow-up, but both patients and doctors will remain blinded to the results;
* Informed written consent.

Exclusion criteria:

* Suboptimal clinical context, because of recent history or concurrent disease.
* Isolated systolic and diastolic hypertension.
* Body-mass index ≥ 40kg/m2.
* The anatomy of the renal arteries is suboptimal for renal denervation.
* Pregnancy.
* Alcohol or substance abuse or psychiatric illnesses.
* Participation in other study.
* The clinical context is suboptimal for renal denervation.
C: Inclusion Criteria:

* Symptomatic drug-refractory AF (with history of failure of ≥2 class I or III antiarrhythmic drugs) in patients referred for catheter ablation of AF
* PAF with ≥1 monthly episodes or PersAF in patients who had already undergone ≥3 electrical cardioversions. PAF was defined as episodes lasting less than 7 days with spontaneous termination. PersAF was defined as lasting more than 7 days before being terminated pharmacologically or by electrical cardioversion.
* Office-based systolic blood pressure of ≥160 mm Hg, despite treatment with ≥3 antihypertensive drugs (including 1 diuretic)
* A glomerular filtration rate ≥45 mL/min/1⋅73 m2, with modification of diet using a renal disease formula

Exclusion Criteria:

* Previous atrial fibrillation ablation
* Type 1 of diabetes mellitus
* Structural heart disease
* Secondary cause of atrial hypertension
* Severe renal artery stenosis or renal arteries abnormalities
* Previous operations on renal arteries
* Pregnancy
* Previous heart, kidney, liver, or lung transplantation
* Unwillingness of participant
D: Inclusion Criteria:

1. Subject is at least 18 years of age and no more than 90 years of age
2. Average SBP ≥ 160 mmHg
3. 24 hour average ABPM daytime SBP ≥ 135 mmHg.
4. No medication changes for a minimum of 1 months prior to screening.
5. At minimum, subject must be on at least three antihypertensive medications, with one being a diuretic, and each must meet one or more of the following full dose criteria:

   1. Highest labeled dose according to medication's labeling;
   2. Highest usual dose per clinical guidelines JNC-7;
   3. Highest tolerated dose; and/or
   4. Highest appropriate dose for the subject per the PI's clinical judgment.
6. Subject has two functioning kidneys.
7. Subject has an eGFR value of ≥ 30 ml/min/1.73 m² (MDRD formula).

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Subject has any secondary cause of hypertension
2. Subject has evidence of clinically significant renal artery stenosis as determined by flow rate, velocity and Doppler analysis on ultrasound
3. Subject has kidney stones that are of a size and location that are determined at discretion of the investigator to potentially interfere with treatment
4. Subject has a history of intra-abdominal surgery within the past six months
5. Subject has heterogeneities in the kidney such as large cysts or tumors that are determined at discretion of the investigator to potentially interfere with treatment.
6. Stenotic valvular heart disease for which BP reduction would be hazardous as determined by referring physician.
7. MI, unstable angina, or CVA in the prior 6 months.
8. Known severe primary pulmonary HTN
9. Subject has a history of myocardial infarction, unstable angina pectoris, or cerebrovascular accident within the last six months.
10. Subject has hemodynamically significant valvular heart disease.
11. Subject has BMI over 40 km/m\^2
12. Subject has a target treatment depth over 13 cm.
13. Subject has anatomy that precludes treatment with the Kona Medical Surround Sound System.
14. Subject is pregnant, nursing, or intends to become pregnant during the trial period.
15. Subject is currently enrolled in other potentially confounding research.
16. Subject has any condition that, at the discretion of the investigator, would preclude participation in the trial.
17. Subject is unable, or unwilling, to comply with the protocol-required follow-up schedule
