China National Study of Adrenal Venous Sampling

Overview

This multicenter study intends to combine retrospective analysis and prospective registry to evaluate the success rate and safety of adrenal venous sampling (AVS) via antecubital and femoral approach for patients with primary aldosteronism. The consistency of AVS with pathological results and clinical outcomes, the factors affecting the success of AVS, and the optimal population for AVS will be aslo analyzed in this study.

Primary aldosteronism (PA) is one of the most common causes of secondary hypertension, and its most common subtypes are aldosterone-producing adenoma and idiopathic hyperaldosteronism, which account for 95% to 98% of PA. Subtype diagnosis is crucial for the treatment of primary aldosteronism, which conducts the appropriate treatment strategy. Currently, adrenal venous sampling (AVS) serves as the gold standard for subtyping of PA. How to improve the success rate of AVS has been a hot topic in the field of primary aldosteronism. This multicenter registry study intends to combine retrospective analysis and prospective registry to evaluate the success rate and safety of AVS via antecubital and femoral approach for patients with primary aldosteronism. The consistency of AVS with pathological results and clinical outcomes, the factors affecting the success of AVS, and the optimal population for AVS will be also analyzed in this study.
