• eGFR of \<40 mL/min/1.73 m2 (by Modification of Diet in Renal Disease formula)
• Brachial circumference ≥ 42 cm
• Any history of cerebrovascular event (e.g. stroke, transient ischemic event, cerebrovascular accident)
• Any history of severe cardiovascular event (myocardial infarction, CABG, acute heart failure requiring hospitalization (NYHA III-IV)
• Documented confirmed episode(s) of stable or unstable angina
• Documented repeat (\>1) hospitalization for hypertensive crisis within the prior 12 months
• Prescribed to any standard antihypertensive of cardiovascular medication (e.g. beta blockers) for other chronic conditions (e.g. ischemic heart disease) such that discontinuation might pose serious risk to health
• Documented history of persistent or permanent atrial tachyarrhythmia
• Active implantable medical device (e.g. ICD or CRT-D; neuromodulator/spinal stimulator; baroreflex stimulator)
• Chronic oxygen support or mechanical ventilation other than nocturnal respiratory support for sleep apnea.
• Primary pulmonary hypertension
• Documented contraindication or allergy to contrast medium not amenable to treatment
• Limited life expectancy of \< 1 year at the discretion of the Investigator
• Any known, unresolved history of drug use or alcohol dependency, lacks the ability to comprehend or follow instructions, or for any reason in the opinion of the investigator, would be unlikely or unable to comply with study protocol requirements or whose participation may result in data analysis confounders (e.g. night shift workers)
• Pregnant, nursing or planning to become pregnant (negative pregnancy test required, documented within a maximum of 7 days prior to procedure for all women of child bearing potential. Documentation of effective contraception is also required for women of child bearing potential) Concurrent enrollment in any other investigational drug or device trial (participation in non-interventional Registries is acceptable)
