Abstract
|
|
|
dominant clinical manifestation of autonomic failure is orthostatic hypotension. However, about one half of these patients also have supine hypertension. The mechanism and treatment of supine hypertension in autonomic failure is not clarified now. But it is clear that we have to treat this condition as well as orthostatic hypotension, because it can predispose to end-organ damage and cardiovascular morbidity and worsen orthostatic hypotension. We can use non-pharmacologic interventions and drugs for supine hypertension.
