Zusammenfassung:A denervation formulation including a denervation drug incorporated into a sustained-release matrix. The sustained-release matrix may include a polycarbonate and a fluoropolymer. The sustained-release matrix may form a plurality of particles to encapsulate the denervation drug. The denervation formulation may be delivered to a patients autonomic neural tissue, including but not limited to a renal sympathetic nerve, a carotid nerve, a pulmonary nerve, and/or a cardiac sympathetic nerve. Upon release, the denervation drug may ablate the patients autonomic neural tissue for treatment of cardiac disease, including but not limited to hypertension, heart failure, and/or atrial and ventricular tachycardia.
