Abstract:
Primary aldosteronism(PA)is an important cause of secondary hypertension,and adrenal vein sampling(AVS),as the gold standard for identifying the dominant side in PA,plays a critical role in guiding subsequent therapeutic strategies.AVS is an invasive procedure that is not yet widely available in China.To promote the popularization and standardization of AVS,the Chinese Society of Hypertension(Chinese Research Hospital Association)and the Group of Interventional Diagnosis and Treatment of Hypertension(China International Exchange and Promotive Association for Medical and Health Care)have summarized domestic and foreign evidence and the operational experience of many experts.This consensus has summarized and updated the significance,indications,pre-procedural preparation,procedural steps and key points,prevention and management of complications,and result interpretation of AVS.This consensus provides comprehensive and clinically relevant guidance for the clinical practice and development of AVS,effectively promoting its popularization and standardization.
