Resistant Hypertension
Assessment of high blood pressure that does not respond adequately to medication.
Areas of Expertise
Every stage of cardiovascular health, from hypertension management to advanced interventional procedures.
01
Core Expertise: Hypertension
Hypertension has been at the centre of Prof. Tengiz's career. He is among the leading figures in hypertension awareness and treatment in Turkey.
- Resistant Hypertension — Assessment of high blood pressure that does not respond adequately to medication.
- Renal Denervation (RDN) — Catheter-based ablation of sympathetic nerves around the renal arteries.
- Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring — 24-hour recording of blood pressure and evaluation of its circadian rhythm.
- Hypertension Excellence Centre — Holistic hypertension management with a multidisciplinary team.
- Target Organ Damage Follow-up — Protecting the heart, kidneys, eyes and brain from hypertension.
