Zusammenfassung:The present disclosure provides a clip for application to a renal artery to induce hypertension. The clip includes a pair of arms between which is formed a slot. The arms are supported by a base portion. The clip may include various curved surfaces to prevent snagging and damage when applied to the renal artery. Also, the clip is preferably constructed of stock titanium rods to have a unitary and stiff construction. Further, the clip includes a pair of cylindrical suture openings that retain a suture passed therethrough after the clip is applied to the renal artery. The suture firmly retains the clip on the artery.
