Local Doctor Introduces Cutting-Edge Medical Procedure in Idaho
A New Procedure to Decrease High Blood Pressure
BLACKFOOT — A breakthrough medical procedure has made its way to Idaho, thanks to the pioneering efforts of Dr. David Shelley, a highly respected vascular and interventional specialist at Bingham Memorial Hospital. The recently performed Recor Paradise Procedure in the Gem State aims to provide a solution for patients resistant to medication in lowering high blood pressure.
Importance of Decreasing Blood Pressure
Dr. Shelley emphasizes that lowering blood pressure has numerous benefits, reducing the risk of stroke, heart attack, and renal diseases that high blood pressure can exacerbate. By addressing medication-resistant hypertension, the Recor Paradise Procedure offers hope for patients in maintaining healthy blood pressure levels, thereby improving overall health and enhancing their quality of life.
The Intricate Cutting-Edge Technique
The procedure involves the insertion of a catheter through the patient’s groin, which is then guided to the renal artery supplying the kidneys with blood. By employing a 3 to 8 millimeter balloon at the catheter’s tip, it is inflated and adheres to the walls of the artery. Following the inflation, ultrasound energy is delivered to the sympathetic nerves present within the artery walls. The ultrasound energy effectively denervates these nerves from transmitting signals that raise blood pressure, consequently leading to a significant decrease in blood pressure.
A Safe and Effective Solution
Backed by four comprehensive studies and the successful treatment of over 500 patients, the Recor Paradise Procedure has been proven to be both safe and effective. Individuals suffering from resistant hypertension, where medication fails to control blood pressure, can leverage this breakthrough treatment to achieve healthy blood pressure levels and subsequently improve their health and overall well-being.
Scheduling a Consultation
For those interested, Dr. Shelley’s office is now accepting appointments to determine eligibility for the procedure. To ensure efficient screening, potential patients may be asked to undergo an ultrasound or a CT scan to evaluate the compatibility of their kidneys with the required equipment. Dr. Shelley emphasizes that interested individuals need to be evaluated thoroughly before proceeding with the procedure.
Leading the Way in Qualified Medical Expertise
While emerging as an innovation in the field of medical science, the Recor Paradise Procedure is cautiously being introduced to ensure it is performed by experienced physicians. With his extensive 20-year experience, Dr. Shelley was deemed by Recor Medical as the qualified physician in the area to bring this transformative treatment to Idaho. Selecting dependable and experienced doctors to administer the procedure not only ensures its successful implementation but also guarantees patient well-being and treatment effectiveness.
