Pulmonary Artery
Denervation (PADN)
Pulmonary Artery Denervation (PADN) is a percutaneous pulmonary artery Intervention technique that
uses a specific PADN catheter to deliver radiofrequency energy to the sympathetic nerves In the
outer membrane of the pulmonary artery, resulting In the disappearance of the myelin sheath of the
nerves and the fusion of the axons, which inhibits sympathetic activity, increases cardiac output,
reduces the pressure in the pulmonary artery, inhibits the pathologic remodeling of the pulmonary
arteries, improves the patient's exercise endurance and cardiac function, and achieves long term
benefits from a single minimally invasive procedure.
