Neurogenic orthostatic hypotension: chasing “the fall”

Postgraduate Medical Journal, 2008
Abstract Orthostatic hypotension (OH) is a frequently encountered problem affecting nearly 30% of the population aged more than 60 years. It can result from neurological and non-neurological derangements which compromise the perfusion of the brain in an erect posture. Neurogenic OH is a manifestation of autonomic failure.

Health related quality-of-life and burden for caregivers of individuals with neurogenic orthostatic hypotension.

Neurodegenerative Disease Management, 2022
Aim: This study explores the burden of caring for an individual with neurogenic orthostatic hypotension (nOH) and an underlying neurodegenerative disease (Parkinson's disease, multiple system atrophy, pure autonomic failure or dementia with Lewy bodies).

Pyridostigmine for the Management of Neurogenic Orthostatic Hypotension: A Systemic Review

Journal of Geriatric Psychiatry and Neurology

Abstract P063: Long-term Efficacy Of Atomoxetine For The Treatment Of Symptomatic Neurogenic Orthostatic Hypotension

HYPERTENSION, 2022
Patients with neurogenic orthostatic hypotension (NOH) are at risk for syncope, falls and have poor quality of life. Only two drugs (midodrine, droxidopa) are FDA-approved for the treatment of NOH.

Abstract 4145249: THE TWO-HIT HYPOTHESIS?: NEW ONEST SEVERE CARDIOMYOPATHY AND CARDIAC ARRYTHMIA IN A HIGH RISK PATIENT WITH NEUROGENIC ORTHOSTATIC HYPOTENSION ON DROXIDOPA

Circulation
Introduction: Droxidopa (DD) is the second FDA approved drug after midodrine for neurogenic orthostatic hypotension (nOH). Isaacon et al reported that 19 (5.4%) of total 350 patients on droxidopa had 25 cardiac events, most commonly atrial ...

Neuropharmacologic Distinction of Neurogenic Orthostatic Hypotension Syndromes

Clinical Neuropharmacology, 2006
Neurogenic orthostatic hypotension (OH) characterizes pure autonomic failure (PAF), multiple system atrophy (MSA), and Parkinson disease (PD) with autonomic failure. We used neuropharmacologic probes that might distinguish these diseases based on loss of sympathetic noradrenergic nerves in PAF and PD + OH but not in MSA, and related the results to ...

Carbon Dioxide as a Novel Blood Pressure Therapy for Neurogenic Orthostatic Hypotension

Physiology
BACKGROUND: On standing, people with neurogenic orthostatic hypotension (nOH) experience plummeting blood pressure (>20/10mmHg), crippling symptoms, and syncope. Current blood pressure therapies lack effcacy and have serious side effects.

Orthostatic Hypotension

Archives of Internal Medicine, 1984
The maintenance of adequate upright BP requires both a baroreceptor-mediated feedback loop and an effective circulating blood volume. Although functional disruptions of these mechanisms are reversible and common, several permanent and often progressive neurologic disorders exist that interfere with necessary reflexes and orthostatic BP control ...

A Detailed Classification of Neurogenic Orthostatic Hypotension According to the Pattern of Orthostatic Blood Pressure Drop in Patients with Orthostatic Intolerance

Journal of the Korean Neurological Association
Background: To investigate the patterns of blood pressure (BP) decrement during the tilt, to compare the pattern of orthostatic hypotension (OH) and sympathetic index (SI) from the Valsalva maneuver (VM), and to identify whether the pattern of OH can ...
