ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
Orthostatic hypotension (OH) may predispose older adults to health complications leading to functional impairment. Despite the central role of the kidney in blood pressure control, the contribution of renal function in orthostatic hypotension is poorly investigated. To verify the association between Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) and OH a population of hospitalised elderly patients with comorbidities was studied. MATERIALS ANDMETHODS:
174 patients were consecutively admitted to Acute Geriatric Wards. On admission, patients underwent postural systolic (SBP) and diastolic (DBP) blood pressure evaluation by automatic oscillometric device after 10 min rest in lying position, and in standing position at time 0, 1, 3 and 5 min. CKD was assumed for estimated glomerular filtration rate (e-GFR) less than 60 mL/min/1.73 m2.RESULTS:
The mean age of the population enrolled was 74.4 ± 7.0. OH was found in 46.0% and CKD in 56.3% of patients, respectively. A lower e-GFR was observed in patients with (56.1 ± 16.7 mL/min/1.73 m2) than in those without OH (61.1 ± 15.9 mL/min/1.73 m2) (p < 0.05). A greater fall in SBP at 0-min (12.8 ± 6.3 vs. 7.7 ± 3.2 mmHg) and at 1-min (8.4 ± 4.5 vs. 5.7 ± 2.8 mmHg) was found in CKD patients in respect to patients without CKD during active standing test (p < 0.05). Similarly, a DBP reduction at 0-min and at 1-min was observed in CKD patients in respect to patients without CKD (p < 0.05). A multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that CKD was associated to OH (OR 2.426; 95%CI 1.192-4.937; p = 0.014).CONCLUSIONS:
CKD is associated to OH in hospitalised older adults.Palavras-chave
