Sympathetic system response to carotid body stimulation for patient stratification in renal denervation

A system includes processor circuitry in communication with an anatomical structure measurement device. An anatomical measurement device receives an indicator associated with a sympathetic response of a patient. The sympathetic nervous system of the patient is then stimulated. The anatomical measurement device then receives another indicator associated with a sympathetic response of the patient while the sympathetic system is stimulated. The processor circuit then provides an output based on the comparison result. 一种系统包括与解剖结构测量设备通信的处理器电路。解剖结构测量设备接收与患者的交感神经反应相关联的一个指标。然后，刺激患者的交感神经系统。然后，在交感神经系统受到刺激时解剖结构测量设备接收与患者的交感神经反应相关联的另一个指标。然后，处理器电路基于比较结果提供输出。
