Abstract:
The invention relates to a system ( 1 ) for stimulating renal nerves of a renal artery of a subject ( 3 ). The system comprises a stimulation device ( 12, 17, 28 ) for stimulating the renal nerves, a measuring unit ( 20 ) for measuring the blood pressure and/or the heart rate of the subject at at least two times, wherein at least one of these times is during or after the stimulation of the renal nerves, and a subject suitability determination unit ( 14 ) for determining whether the subject is suitable for a renal sympathetic denervation procedure based on the measured blood pressure and/or the measured heart rate. The invention allows therefore for a preselection of subjects which are suitable for a renal sympathetic denervation procedure.

Claim (Index 1):
A system for stimulating renal nerves of a renal artery of a subject, the system comprising:\n a stimulation device comprising an interstitial device for stimulating the renal nerves interstitially, a measuring unit for measuring the blood pressure and/or the heart rate of the subj ect at least two times, wherein at least one of these times is during or after the stimulation of the renal nerves, and a subject suitability determination unit for determining whether the subject is suitable for a renal sympathetic denervation procedure based on the measured blood pressure and/or the measured heart rate.
