Orthostatic hypotension in Parkinson disease

Neurology, 2019
Objective To determine the frequency, evolution, and associated features of orthostatic hypotension (OH) over 7 years of prospective follow-up in a population-based, initially drug-naive Parkinson disease (PD) cohort.

Management of supine hypertension in patients with neurogenic orthostatic hypotension: scientific statement of the American Autonomic Society, European Federation of Autonomic Societies, and the European Society of Hypertension.

Journal of Hypertension, 2019
: Supine hypertension commonly occurs in patients with neurogenic orthostatic hypotension due to autonomic failure. Supine hypertension promotes nocturnal sodium excretion and orthostatic hypotension, thus, interfering with quality of life.

Treatment of Orthostatic Hypotension

Seminars in Neurology, 2003
Orthostatic hypotension is the most incapacitating symptom of autonomic failure. This disorder occurs with both central autonomic neurodegenerative disorders, such as multiple system atrophy and Parkinson's disease, and peripheral autonomic disorders, such as the autonomic peripheral neuropathies and pure autonomic failure. The hallmark of both central

Idiopathic Orthostatic Hypotension

Archives of Neurology, 1971
A case of idiopathic orthostatic hypotension (IOH) is presented with clinical and autopsy data. Electron microscopic examination identifies previously described eosinophil bodies in the sympathetic ganglia as axonal swellings. The case presented is correlated with data from literature.

Management of orthostatic hypotension

American Journal of Health-System Pharmacy, 1994
The pathogenesis, clinical manifestations, and management of orthostatic hypotension (OH) are reviewed. OH is a decline in blood pressure that occurs when one moves from a lying to a standing position that results in symptoms of cerebral hypoperfusion, most commonly lightheadedness and syncope.

Treatment of orthostatic hypotension

Current Opinion in Pharmacology, 2002
Orthostatic hypotension (OH) is a fall in blood pressure after assuming an upright position. Whereas asymptomatic patients usually need no treatment, the majority of symptomatic patients can be cured by avoidance of trigger mechanisms and the use of physical countermaneuvers and non-pharmacological interventions.

Idiopathic Orthostatic Hypotension

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1962
Six patients with idiopathic orthostatic hypotension were studied for the effect and mode of action of 9-alpha-fluorohydrocortisone. In 5 patients satisfactory symptomatic control of the hypotension was achieved. In 1 patient it was twice demonstrated that the rise of blood pressure obtained within 48 hours after starting treatment with 9-alpha ...

Prevalence of orthostatic hypotension

Clinical Autonomic Research, 2008
Orthostatic hypotension (OH) is defined as a fall in blood pressure of at least 20 mmHg systolic or 10 mmHg diastolic when standing or during head-up tilt testing. The prevalence of OH increases with age, with disorders that affect autonomic nerve transmission, and with increasingly severe orthostatic stress.

What is the relationship between frailty and orthostatic hypotension in older adults?

Journal of Geriatric Cardiology, 2019
Background Frailty and orthostatic hypotension (OH), which is common in older adults, is associated with morbidity and mortality. The relationship between them remains unclear.

Orthostatic Hypotension and Syncope

New England Journal of Medicine, 1977
A failure of peripheral vascular tone in the upright position is a common cause of arterial hypotension, cerebral ischemia and syncope. The commonest form is vasodepressor syncope, with an active dilatation of resistance vessels, indicative of a crescendo, autonomic discharge in which cholinergic features predominate (perspiration, increased ...
