Background: The carotid bulb has a high density of baroreceptors that play an important role in maintaining blood pressure. We hypothesized that atherosclerosis of the carotid bulb would reflect the severity of orthostatic hypotension more accurately ...

Distributed Stratified Locality Sensitive Hashing for Critical Event Prediction in the Cloud [PDF]
The availability of massive healthcare data repositories calls for efficient tools for data-driven medicine. We introduce a distributed system for Stratified Locality Sensitive Hashing to perform fast similarity-based prediction on large medical waveform datasets.

Orthostatic hypotension and cardiovascular risk
Orthostatic hypotension (OH) is a cardinal sign of cardiovascular (CV) autonomic dysfunction as a result of autonomic nervous system failure to control the postural hemodynamic homeostasis. The proportion of individuals with OH increases with aging and chronic conditions, such as neurodegenerative diseases, hypertension, heart failure, diabetes, renal ...

Heart Rate Variability during Periods of Low Blood Pressure as a Predictor of Short-Term Outcome in Preterms [PDF]
Efficient management of low blood pressure (BP) in preterm neonates remains challenging with a considerable variability in clinical practice. The ability to assess preterm wellbeing during episodes of low BP will help to decide when and whether hypotension treatment should be initiated.

Treatment of Orthostatic Hypotension with Erythropoietin
Patients with orthostatic hypotension caused by autonomic neuropathy frequently have a decreased red-cell mass. This would be expected to compromise their effective circulating blood volume and aggravate the orthostatic hypotension. We studied the effect of increasing the red-cell mass with erythropoietin, given subcutaneously in a dose of 50 U per ...
