RESUMEN INTRODUCCIÓN: La enfermedad de Parkinson es un trastorno neurodegenerativo frecuente que se caracteriza por manifestaciones de tipo motor y no motor, tales como disautonomía, trastornos del sueño, disfunción sexual, alteraciones psiquiátricas y cognitivas, entre otros. Según su fenotipo motor, se puede clasificada en tremórica dominante (TD), dificultad para la marcha/inestabilidad postural (DMI) y un fenotipo indeterminado. En el estudio se determina la influencia del fenotipo motor en la disautonomía cardiovascular del paciente con Parkinson en los pacientes de la consulta de neurología del hospital del IVSS "Dr. Patrocinio Peñuela Ruiz" entre mayo del 2015 y abril del 2016. METODOS: Estudio observacional, descriptivo, transversal en pacientes mayores de 40 años con EP idiopática. Se evaluó el MDS-UPDRS, Hoehn y Yahr, Scopa-AUT , Hipotensión Ortostática y Rines-Valcardi. RESULTADOS: Se obtuvo una muestra de 57 pacientes; luego de la aplicación de los criterios de inclusión y exclusión se estudiaron 37 sujetos. Todos los pacientes tuvieron algún grado de disautonomía (medida con la escala Scopa-AUT). El Scopa-AUT fue mayor en los pacientes con hipotensión ortostática (p = ,003), observándose igual diferencia para la subescala cardiovascular (p = ,026). Se observó que la neuropatía autonómica (medida con Rines-Valcardi) fue más frecuente en aquellos pacientes con fenotipo DMI (p = < ,001), y que la hipotensión ortostática fue también más frecuente en aquellos pacientes con dicho fenotipo (DMI) (p = ,016). CONCLUSIÓN: La presencia de disautonomía es frecuente en los pacientes con EP; hubo diferencias en la puntuación total y la subescala cardiovascular del Scopa-AUT, de acuerdo CON la presencia de hipotensión ortostática; aquellos sujetos que cursan con fenotipo motor DMI tienen mayor riesgo de presentar hipotensión ortostática y neuropatía autonómica cardíaca.
ABSTRACT INTRODUCTION: Parkinson's disease is a frequent neurodegenerative disorder characterized by motor and non-motor manifestations, such as dysautonomia, sleep disorders, sexual dysfunction, and psychiatric and cognitive disorders. It can be classified according to their motor phenotype in tremor-dominant (TD), postural instability/gait difficulty (DMI), and indeterminate subtypes. This study established the influence of motor phenotype on the cardiovascular dysautonomia of patients with Parkinson's disease from the neurology outpatient clinic at the IVSS hospital "Dr. Patrocinio Peñuela Ruiz," from May 2015 to April 2016. METHODS: Observational, descriptive, cross-sectional study in patients older than 40 years with idiopathic PD. The MDS-UPDRS scale, Hoehn and Yahr scale, Scopa-AUT scale, Orthostatic Hypotension, and RINES-VALCARDI were evaluated. RESULTS: A sample of 57 was obtained, and after applying inclusion and exclusion criteria, 37 subjects were studied. All the patients had some degree of dysautonomia (measured with SCOPA- AUT scale). The SCOPA-AUT was higher in patients with orthostatic hypotension (p= .003), finding this same difference for the cardiovascular subscale (p = .026). Both autonomic neuropathy (measured with RINES-VALCARDI) and orthostatic hypotension were found more frequently on the DMI phenotype (p= <.001 and p=.016). CONCLUSION: Dysautonomia is frequent in PD patients; there was a difference between SCOPA-AUT total score and cardiovascular subscale according to orthostatic hypotension; those with DMI phenotype have a greater risk of orthostatic hypotension and cardiac autonomic neuropathy.

SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to analyze the association between orthostatic changes in blood pressure and mortality in elderly cardiopath patients. METHODS: A cohort of 455 elderly cardiopath patients, monitored at a referral outpatient cardiology clinic in Pernambuco, Brazil, from October 2015 to July 2018. The exposure groups were formed according to their orthostatic changes in blood pressure following the requirements of the Brazilian Guidelines for Hypertension. RESULTS: Orthostatic hypotension was present in 46 patients (10.1%), 91 had orthostatic hypertension (20%), and 318 had no orthostatic alterations (69.9%). There were 52 deaths during follow-up. The results demonstrated that there was no statistically significant association between orthostatic hypotension and overall mortality (HR 1.30; 95%CI 0.53-3.14; p=0.567) nor between orthostatic hypertension and overall mortality (HR 0.95; 95%CI 0.65-1.39; p=0.34). Survival in relation to the exposure groups presented no statistically significant difference (p=0.504). CONCLUSION: There was a low frequency of orthostatic hypotension and a mild high frequency of orthostatic hypertension when compared with previous studies, and no association was observed with overall mortality or with the survival time of elderly patients with heart disease.

Resumo Fundamento A hipotensão ortostática (HO) tem sido negligenciada na clínica não havendo estudos sobre sua prevalência na população brasileira. Objetivo Determinar a prevalência de HO e a variação da pressão arterial (PA) após manobra postural no Estudo Longitudinal da Saúde do Adulto. Métodos No presente estudo descritivo da linha de base (N = 14.833 indivíduos, 35-74 anos), os participantes ficavam deitados por 20 minutos e então levantavam ativamente, com a medida da PA em supino e aos 2, 3, e 5 minutos de ortostase. A HO foi definida por queda ≥ 20 mmHg na PA sistólica e/ou queda ≥ 10 mmHg na PA diastólica aos 3 minutos, sendo determinada a sua prevalência com intervalo de confiança de 95% (IC95%). A distribuição da variação da PA após a manobra postural foi determinada numa subamostra (N = 8.011) após remoção de participantes com morbidade cardiovascular e/ou diabetes. Resultados A prevalência de HO foi de 2,0% (IC95%: 1,8 - 2,3), crescente com a idade. Se o critério for a mesma queda pressórica em qualquer das medidas, a prevalência aumenta para 4,3% (IC95%: 4,0 - 4,7). Em presença de HO houve relato de sintomas (tontura, escotomas, náuseas, etc.) em 19,7% dos participantes (IC95%: 15,6 - 24,6) e em apenas 1,4% (IC95%: 1,2 - 1,6) dos sem HO. Os escores-Z −2 das variações da PA antes e após manobra postural na subamostra foram de −14,1 mmHg na PA sistólica e −5,4 mmHg na diastólica. Conclusão A prevalência de HO varia em função do momento da aferição da PA. Os pontos de corte atuais podem subestimar a ocorrência de HO na população. (Arq Bras Cardiol. 2020; 114(6):1040-1048)
Abstract Background Orthostatic hypotension (OH) has been neglected in clinical practice, and there are no studies on its prevalence in the Brazilian population. Objective To determine the prevalence of OH and blood pressure (BP) changes after the postural change maneuver in participants of the Longitudinal Study of Adult Health. Methods In this descriptive study of baseline data (N = 14,833 adults, ages 35 - 74 years), participants remained lying down for 20 minutes and subsequently stood up actively. BP measurements were taken while the participants were supine and at 2, 3, and 5 minutes after standing. OH was defined as a reduction of ≥ 20 mmHg in systolic BP and/or a reduction of ≥ 10 mmHg in diastolic BP at 3 minutes, and its prevalence was determined with a 95% confidence interval (CI). The distribution of BP variation after the postural change maneuver was determined in a subsample (N = 8,011) obtained by removing patients with cardiovascular morbidity and/or diabetes. Results The prevalence of OH was 2.0% (95% CI: 1.8 - 2.3), increasing with age. If the criterion applied were a BP reduction during any measurement, the prevalence would increase to 4.3% (95% CI: 4.0 - 4.7). Symptoms (dizziness, scotoma, nausea, etc.) were reported by 19.7% of participants (95% CI: 15.6 - 24.6) with OH and 1.4% (95% CI: 1.2 - 1.6) of participants without OH. The −2 Z-scores of BP variation before and after the postural change maneuver in the subsample were −14.1 mmHg for systolic BP and −5.4 mmHg for diastolic BP. Conclusion Prevalence of OH varies depending on when BP is measured. Current cutoff points may underestimate the actual occurrence of OH in the population. (Arq Bras Cardiol. 2020; 114(6):1040-1048)

A narrative review was made on orthostatic hypotension and cognitive impairment / dementia. The PubMed and PsycInfo databases were used and the original studies published in English between 2013 and 2018 were identified. The keywords used during the search were the following: "orthostatic hypotension", "adults" and "cognitive" / "cognitive impairment" / "dementia". We found 20 original studies that explore the relationship between orthostatic hypotension and cognitive / dementia. Most of the studies reviewed provide evidence in favor of the existence of an association between orthostatic hypotension and cognitive impairment / dementia in adults: 8 out of 11 papers provide evidence in favor of the existence of an association between orthostatic hypotension and cognitive impairment, 6 out of 7 papers provide evidence in favor of the existence of an association between orthostatic hypotension and dementia, and 2 out of 2 papers provide evidence in favor of the existence of an association between orthostatic hypotension and mild cognitive impairment. The authors suggest that both brain hypoperfusion and cellular damage could partially explain the link between orthostatic hypotension and the cognitive disorders described in the literature. Future studies may identify mechanisms that explain the association between orthostatic hypotension and cognitive impairment / orthostatic hypotension and dementia in adults to reduce the risk of cognitive impairment / dementia or at least slow down its progression
Se realizó una revisión narrativa sobre la hipotensión ortostática (HTO) y el deterioro cognitivo/la demencia. Se utilizaron las bases de datos PubMed y PsycInfo. Se identificaron los estudios originales publicados en idioma inglés entre 2013 y 2018, inclusive. Las palabras clave utilizadas durante la búsqueda fueron las siguientes: "orthostatic hypotension", "adults" and "cognitive"/ "cognitive impairment"/ "dementia". Se encontraron 20 estudios originales que exploran la relación entre la HTO y el/la deterioro cognitivo/demencia. La mayoría de los trabajos revisados aportan datos a favor de la existencia de una asociación entre HTO y deterioro cognitivo/demencia en adultos: 8 de 11 trabajos suministran información a favor de la existencia de una asociación entre HTO y deterioro cognitivo, 6 de 7 estudios brindan datos a favor de la existencia de una asociación entre HTO y demencia, y 2 trabajos aportan datos a favor de la asociación entre HTO y deterioro cognitivo leve. Los autores sugieren que tanto la hipoperfusión cerebral como el daño celular podrían explicar, al menos parcialmente, la vinculación entre la HTO y las alteraciones cognitivas descriptas en la bibliografía. Estudios realizados en el futuro podrán identificar los mecanismos que expliquen la asociación entre HTO y deterioro cognitivo, así como entre HTO y demencia en adultos, con el fin de reducir el riesgo de deterioro cognitivo/demencia o, al menos, enlentecer su progresión.

Abstract Background: Arterial compliance reduction has been associated with aging and hypertension in supine position. However, the dynamic effects of orthostatism on aortic distensibility has not been defined. Objective: We sought to determine the orthostatic influence and the interference of age, blood pressure (BP) and heart rate (HR) on the great arteries during gravitational stress. Methods: Ninety-three healthy volunteers (age 42 ± 16 years). Carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (PWV) assumed as aortic stiffness was assessed in supine position (basal phase), during tilt test (TT) (orthostatic phase) and after return to supine position (recovery phase). Simultaneously with PWV acquisition, measures of BP and HR rate were recorded. Results: PWV during TT increased significantly compared to the basal and recovery phases (11.7 ± 2.5 m/s vs. 10.1 ± 2.3 m/s and 9.5 ± 2.0 m/s). Systolic BP (r = 0.55, r = 0.46 and r = 0.39) and age (r = 0.59, r = 0.63 and r = 0.39) correlated with PWV in all phases. The significance level for all tests was established as α = 0.05. Conclusion: We conclude that there is a permanent increase in PWV during orthostatic position that was returned to basal level at the recovery phase. This dynamic pattern of PWV response, during postural changes, can be explained by an increase in hydrostatic pressure at the level of abdominal aorta which with smaller radius and an increased elastic modulus, propagates the pulse in a faster way. Considering that it could increase central pulse reflection during the orthostatic position, we speculate that this mechanism may play a role in the overall adaptation of humans to gravitational stress.
Resumo Fundamento: A redução da complacência arterial tem sido associada ao envelhecimento e à hipertensão na postura supina. Entretanto, os efeitos dinâmicos do ortostatismo na distensibilidade aórtica não foram definidos. Objetivo: Determinar a influência ortostática e a interferência da idade, pressão arterial (PA) e frequência cardíaca (FC) sobre as grandes artérias durante o estresse gravitacional. Métodos: Noventa e três voluntários saudáveis (idade de 42 ± 16 anos). A velocidade da onda de pulso carotídeo-femoral (VOP), assumida como rigidez aórtica, foi avaliada na posição supina (fase basal) durante o teste de inclinação (TT) (fase ortostática) e após o retorno à posição supina (fase de recuperação). Simultaneamente à aquisição da PWV, registrou-se as medidas de PA e FC. Resultados: A VOP durante o TT aumentou significativamente em comparação com as fases basal e de recuperação (11,7 ± 2,5 m/s vs. 10,1 ± 2,3 m/se 9,5 ± 2,0 m/s). PA sistólica (r = 0,55, r = 0,46 e r = 0,39) e idade (r = 0,59, r = 0,63 e r = 0,39) correlacionaram-se com a VOP em todas as fases. O nível de significância para todos os testes foi estabelecido como = 0,05. Conclusão: Observou-se um aumento permanente da VOP durante a postura ortostática, que retornou ao nível basal na fase de recuperação. Esse padrão dinâmico de resposta da VOP, durante as alterações posturais, pode ser explicado pelo aumento da pressão hidrostática no nível da aorta abdominal que, com raio menor e aumento do módulo de elasticidade, propaga o pulso de maneira mais rápida. Considerando-se que poderia aumentar a reflexão do pulso central durante a posição ortostática, podemos especular que esse mecanismo pode desempenhar um papel na adaptação global do humano ao estresse gravitacional.

ABSTRACT Vitamin D is a pleiotropic steroid hormone that modulates the autonomic balance. Its deficiency has been described as an environmental risk factor for multiple sclerosis (MS). The aim of this study was to investigate the serum levels of vitamin D, vitamin D binding protein (VDBP) and vitamin D receptors (VDR) and to evaluate cardiac dysautonomia in MS patients due to bidirectional interaction between vitamin D and the autonomic nervous system. Methods: The current cross-sectional study was conducted on 26 patients with relapsing-remitting MS and on 24 healthy controls. Twenty-four-hour ambulatory blood pressure variability (BPV) was calculated and the participants were evaluated for orthostatic hypotension and supine hypertension. Serum levels of vitamin D, VDBP and VDR were measured. Results: The mean serum vitamin D level was significantly lower in MS patients than in controls (p = 0.044); however there was no significant difference in terms of VDR and VDBP levels between the groups. Supine hypertension and orthostatic hypotension were significant and the 24-hour systolic BPV was significantly decreased in patients with MS (p < 0.05) compared to controls. No correlation was found between vitamin D, VDBP and VDR with supine hypertension, orthostatic hypotension and systolic BPV values (p > 0.05). Also, there was a negative correlation between VDBP and the EDSS (p = 0.039, r = −0.406). Conclusion: There was no correlation between orthostatic hypotension, supine hypertension and systolic BPV values and serum vitamin D, VDBP and VDR in MS patients. Future prospective studies with large number of patients may help us to better understand the relationship between vitamin D and the autonomic nervous system.
RESUMO A vitamina D é um hormônio esteroide pleiotrópico que modula o equilíbrio autonômico. Sua deficiência tem sido descrita como fator de risco ambiental para esclerose múltipla (EM). O objetivo deste estudo foi investigar os níveis séricos de vitamina D, proteína de ligação à vitamina D (VDBP) e receptor de vitamina D (VDR) e avaliar a disautonomia cardíaca em pacientes com EM devida à interação bidirecional entre vitamina D e sistema nervoso autônomo. Métodos: O presente estudo transversal foi realizado em 26 pacientes com EM remitente-recorrente e em 24 controles saudáveis. A variabilidade da pressão arterial ambulatorial (BPV) por 24 horas foi calculada e os participantes foram avaliados quanto à hipotensão ortostática e hipertensão supina. Os níveis séricos de vitamina D, VDBP e VDR foram medidos. Resultados: O nível sérico médio de vitamina D foi significativamente menor nos pacientes com EM do que nos controles (p = 0,044); no entanto, não houve diferença significativa em termos de níveis de VDR e VDBP entre os grupos. Hipertensão supina e hipotensão ortostática foram significativas e a BPV sistólica de 24 horas diminuiu significativamente em pacientes com EM (p < 0,05) em comparação aos controles. Não foi encontrada correlação entre vitamina D, VDBP e VDR com hipertensão supina, hipotensão ortostática e BPV sistólica (p > 0,05). Também houve correlação negativa entre VDBP e EDSS (p = 0,039, r = −0,406). Conclusão: Não houve correlação entre hipotensão ortostática, hipertensão supina e valores de BPV sistólica e vitamina D sérica, VDBP e VDR em pacientes com EM. Futuros estudos prospectivos com grande número de pacientes podem nos ajudar a entender melhor a relação entre vitamina D e sistema nervoso autônomo.

Resumo: O objetivo foi investigar os fatores associados à presença de hipotensão ortostática em 14.833 indivíduos de 35-74 anos. Estudo transversal realizado com os dados da linha de base (2008-2010) do Estudo Longitudinal de Saúde do Adulto (ELSA-Brasil). O teste postural foi realizado após repouso de 20 minutos na posição supina e adoção ativa da postura ortostática. A pressão arterial foi medida em supino e aos três minutos de ortostase com aparelho oscilométrico (HEM 705 CP, Omron, São Paulo, Brasil). A hipotensão ortostática foi definida por queda ≥ 20mmHg na pressão arterial sistólica e/ou queda ≥ 10mmHg na pressão arterial diastólica. As covariáveis analisadas foram sexo, faixa etária, raça/cor, escolaridade, estado nutricional, circunferência da cintura, alteração no índice tornozelo braquial, velocidade de onda de pulso, pressão arterial sistólica e diastólica, hipertensão, diabetes, uso de anti-hipertensivos, colesterol, triglicérides, sorologia para a doença de Chagas, ocorrência de sintomas e variação de frequência cardíaca no teste postural, relato de doença cardíaca, infarto agudo do miocárdio (IAM)/revascularização e acidente vascular cerebral. A hipotensão ortostática foi significativamente associada à maior faixa etária, OR = 1,83 (IC95%: 1,14-2,95); alteração no índice tornozelo braquial, OR = 2,8 (IC95%: 1,13-6,88), IAM/revascularização, OR = 1,70 (IC95%: 1,01-2,87); relato de doença cardíaca, OR = 3,03 (IC95%: 1,71-5,36); pressão arterial sistólica aumentada, OR = 1,012 (IC95%: 1,006-1,019); sorologia positiva para a doença de Chagas, OR = 2,29 (IC95%: 1,23-4,27) e ocorrência de sintomas na mudança postural, OR = 20,81 (IC95%: 14,81-29,24). A presença de hipotensão ortostática pode ser alerta de potencial comprometimento cardiovascular, e, portanto, uma ferramenta de rastreamento e prevenção.
Abstract: This study aimed to investigate factors associated with orthostatic hypotension in 14,833 individuals 35-74 years of age. This was a cross-sectional study of baseline data (2008-2010) from the Longitudinal Study of Adult Health (ELSA-Brasil). Postural testing was performed after 20 minutes resting in supine position and active adoption of orthostatic posture. Blood pressure was measured in supine position and at 3 minutes in orthostatic position with an oscillometer (HEM 705 CP, Omron, São Paulo, Brazil). Orthostatic hypotension was defined as a drop of ≥ 20mmHg in systolic blood pressure and/or a drop of ≥ 10mmHg in diastolic blood pressure. The target covariates were sex, age bracket, race/color, schooling, nutritional status, waist circumference, alteration in the ankle-brachial index, pulse wave velocity, systolic and diastolic blood pressure, hypertension, diabetes, use of antihypertensives, cholesterol, triglycerides, Chagas disease serology, symptoms, and heart rate variation in the postural test, self-reported heart disease, acute myocardial infarction (AMI)/revascularization, and stroke. Orthostatic hypotension was significantly associated with higher age bracket, OR = 1.83 (95%CI: 1.14-2.95); alteration in the ankle-brachial index, OR = 2.8 (95%CI: 1.13-6.88); AMI/revascularization, OR = 1.70 (95%CI: 1.01-2.87); report of heart disease, OR = 3.03 (95%CI: 1.71-5.36); increased systolic blood pressure, OR = 1.012 (95%CI: 1.006-1.019); positive Chagas disease serology, OR = 2.29 (95%CI: 1.23-4.27); and occurrence of symptoms with postural change, OR = 20.81 (95%CI: 14.81-29.24). Presence of orthostatic hypotension can be a warning sign for cardiovascular disorders and thus a useful tool for screening and prevention.

PURPOSE: To investigate the efficacy and safety of 0.4 mg of tamsulosin in patients with nocturia not responding to 0.2 mg.METHODS: Patients with intractable nocturia after treatment with 0.2 mg of tamsulosin for>1 month were included in a multicenter, prospective, observational, single-arm study. Patients were prescribed 0.4 mg of tamsulosin and followed up for 2 months to assess nocturnal voiding and nocturia-related bother. Changes in the mean number of nocturnal voids, the proportion of 50% responders, 3-day frequency-volume chart parameters, and questionnaire scores were assessed.RESULTS: Sixty-two patients were prescribed 0.2 mg of tamsulosin, of whom 56 were prescribed 0.4 mg of tamsulosin. Ten patients dropped out. A single case of orthostatic hypotension was reported. The mean age was 68 years. After 1 and 2 months of taking 0.4 mg of tamsulosin, 23.9% and 22.7% of patients demonstrated a>50% reduction of nocturia, and 16.1% and 19.4% of patients rated the treatment as “very effective,” respectively. Dose escalation to 0.4 mg of tamsulosin, compared to 0.2 mg, did not show an additional effect on reducing nocturnal urine volume. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that lower serum sodium levels (odds ratio [OR], 0.41, P=0.037) and the presence of urge incontinence (OR, 7.08, P=0.036) were predictors of a significant improvement of nocturia in response to 0.4 mg of tamsulosin.CONCLUSIONS: Dose escalation may yield a significant improvement of nocturia in>20% of patients, and may be especially helpful in patients with lower sodium levels and urge incontinence.

In the Systolic Blood Pressure Intervention Trial (SPRINT), intensive blood pressure (BP) lowering was associated with significant reduction in composite cardiovascular (CV) outcomes in hypertension. Subsequently, several meta-analyses have corroborated the findings from SPRINT and these benefits were more prominent in subjects with higher cardiovascular risk at baseline. As such, the recent American College of Cardiology (ACC)/American Heart Association (AHA) hypertension guideline and the European Society of Hypertension (ESH)/European Society of Cardiology (ESC) guideline recommended the lowering of target BP to less than 130/80 mmHg in most hypertensive subjects. However, one should keep in mind the potential harm of too much BP lowering. Post hoc analysis of clinical trials have demonstrated increased cardiovascular mortality and events with too much BP lowering. Therefore, although intensive BP lowering may be beneficial in further reducing CV outcomes, too much reduction below 120/70 mmHg may actually harmful. In conclusion, although intensive BP lowering to achieve target BP below 130/80 mmHg is beneficial in reducing CV outcomes, one should do so cautiously as to avoid adverse events. As such, the first target of anti-hypertensive treatment should be to achieve BP lowering below 140/90 mmHg. Once that target is achieved, one could target BP below 130/80 mmHg keeping in mind to avoid signs of organ hypoperfusion such as orthostatic hypotension, orthostatic dizziness, weakness and serum creatinine elevation.

@#Orthostatic hypotension occurs when cardiovascular adaptive mechanisms fail to compensate the reduction in venous return that normally occurs on the upright position. A patient with orthostatic hypotension can be a challenging case for a dentist. A 78-year-old male came with idiopatic orthostatic hypotension and felt uncomfortable with his old crown restoration and discoloration on his upper teeth. Management of orthostatic hypotension can be handled by manipulating the dental chair interval movement position.

Introdução: A lipoaspiração é o sendo segundo procedimento mais realizado no Brasil. Com os avanços da técnica, melhores equipamentos e aumento da segurança no ambiente cirúrgico, passaram-se a ser lipoaspiradas grandes áreas. Contudo, existe uma preocupação com a segurança do paciente. Comitês de segurança têm feito recomendações sobre a infiltração, anestesia, seleção do paciente, volume aspirado, entre outros. A Sociedade Brasileira de Cirurgia Plástica e o Conselho Federal de Medicina também determinaram parâmetros de volumes de segurança do aspirado e superfície corporal aspirada. Ainda assim, a literatura de apoio para as recomendações é escassa. O objetivo é avaliar as alterações dos níveis de hemoglobina, ferro sérico e proteínas totais no pré e pós-operatório mediato (7-10 dias), assim como seus reflexos nos pacientes. Métodos: Realizamos um estudo prospectivo, com pacientes submetidos à lipoaspiração isolada e associada à dermolipectomia abdominal, por indicações estéticas. Avaliamos 30 pacientes, sendo coletados dados demográficos, peso, Índice de Massa Corporal, níveis de hemoglobina, ferro sérico e proteínas totais, no pré-operatório, e entre 7 a 10 dias de pós-operatório. Resultados: A queda da hemoglobina foi entre 2-6g/dl, com média de 3,1g/dl aos 7-10 dia de PO. Tivemos como valor mínimo de hemoglobina 7,8g/dl no pós-operatório com 7-10 dias, enquanto o ferro sérico apresentou redução média de 44,87g/dl. Conclusão: A redução no nível da hemoblogina foi responsável pela sintomatolgia clinica apresentada. A reposição de ferro se mostrou necessária no pós-operatório imediato.
Introduction: Liposuction is the second commonest procedure performed in Brazil. The scope for liposuction has broadened with advances in the technique, with better equipment, and increased safety in the surgical environment. However, there are concerns about patient safety. Safety committees have made recommendations on various aspects of the procedure including infiltration, anesthesia, patient selection, and aspirated volume. The Brazilian Society of Plastic Surgery and the Federal Council of Medicine have also determined the parameters for aspiration safety volumes, and for the aspiration of body surface. However, supporting literature for the recommendations is scarce. The objective is to evaluate changes in hemoglobin, serum iron, and total protein levels in the peri-operative days (between 7 and 10 days), in addition to its impact in patients. Methods: We performed a prospective study, with patients submitted to either liposuction alone, or in conjunction with abdominal dermolipectomy for esthetic indications. We evaluated 30 patients, collecting their demographic data, weight, body mass index, hemoglobin, serum iron, and total protein levels in both, the pre-operative period, and between 7 and 10 post-operative days. Results: The fall in hemoglobin levels were between 2 and 6 g /dL, with an average of 3.1 g /dL between 7 and 10 post-operative days . A minimum hemoglobin value of 7.8 g/dL was noted between 7 and 10 days after surgery, while the mean reduction of serum iron was found to be 44.87 g/dL. Conclusion: The reduction in hemoglobin levels was responsible for the clinical symptoms. Iron supplementation was required in the immediate post-operative period.

Abstract Background: The prevalence of orthostatic hypotension (OH) increases with age and is associated with changes in autonomic regulation of blood pressure (BP) and heart rate (HR). Objective: to assess HR and HR variability (HRV) in elderly subjects with OH and determine OH predictors. Methods: a total of 105 patients aged ≥ 60 years, 39 with OH (case group) and 66 without OH (control group) (age-matched) were studied. Patients underwent clinical assessment, electrocardiogram, biochemistry tests and Holter monitoring for spectral analysis of HRV (Fourier transform) in the supine and orthostatism positions to identify low frequency (LF) and high frequency (HF) components, as well as the LF/HF ratio. Results: median age was 73.0 years, 64 patients were women. In all participants, there was a reduction in HF (133.0 versus 76.0 ms2, p = 0.001) and increase in LF/HF (1.6 vs 2.1; p < 0.001) and no change in LF (233.0 versus 218.0 ms2, p = 0.080). Between-group comparisons revealed significant differences in the median values of HR in the supine position (62.0 vs. 69.0 bpm, p = 0.001) and LF in the supine position (157.0 in case group vs. 275.0 ms2 in the control group, p = 0.014). Spearman's correlation coefficient of 0.27 was found between the groups. Multivariate analysis revealed that HR in the supine position was an independent variable for OH (p = 0.001- 95%CI = -0.022 and -0.006). Using the operating characteristic curve, the best cutoff point was 61 bpm, with a sensitivity of 77.3% and specificity of 51.3%, positive predictive value of 61.3%, and negative predictive value 69.3%. Odds ratio was 3.23 for OH in patients with a HR lower than 61 bpm. Conclusions: lower LF and HR in the supine position were found in patients with OH, regardless of age and gender. The independent predictor for OH was HR in the supine position, with an odds ratio of 3.23 for values lower than 61 bpm.
Resumo Fundamento: A prevalência de hipotensão ortostática (HO) aumenta com a idade e está relacionada a alterações da regulação autonômica da pressão arterial (PA) e da frequência cardíaca (FC). Objetivos: Avaliar a FC e variabilidade da FC (VFC) em idosos com HO e verificar os preditores de HO. Métodos: foram avaliados 105 pacientes, com idade ≥ 60 anos, 39 com HO (grupo caso) e 66 sem HO (grupo controle), pareados por idade. Foram submetidos à avaliação clínica, eletrocardiograma, exames de bioquímica e monitoramento pelo Holter para análise espectral da VFC (transformação de Fourier), na posição supina e em ortostatismo, para detectar os componentes de baixa frequência (LF), de alta frequência (HF) e sua relação LF/HF. Resultados: A mediana de idade foi de 73,0 anos, 64 dos pacientes eram mulheres. Em toda a população, com a mudança de posição, houve redução do HF (133,0 versus 76,0 ms2, p = 0,001) e aumento da relação LF/HF (1,6vs2,1; p < 0,001), sem alteração quanto à mediana do componente LF (233,0 versus 218,0 ms2, p = 0,080). Quando comparado o grupo caso ao grupo controle, houve diferença quanto às medianas da FC nas posições supina (62,0 vs 69,0 bpm, p = 0,001) e do componente LF na posição supina (157,0 no grupo caso vs 275,0 ms2 no grupo controle, p = 0,014). Quanto ao gênero, o coeficiente de Spearman foi de 0,27 entre os grupos. Pela análise multivariada, a FC na posição supina foi a variável independente para a ocorrência de HO (p = 0,001- IC95% = -0,022 e -0,006). Pela curva de operação característica, o melhor ponto de corte para FC foi de 61 bpm, com sensibilidade de 77,3%, especificidade de 51,3%, valor preditivo positivo de 61,3%, e o valor preditivo negativo de 69,3%. A razão de chance foi de 3,23 para HO entre os pacientes com FC < 61 bpm. Conclusões: Houve menor valor do LF e da FC na posição supina entre os pacientes com HO, sem influência da idade e do gênero. O preditor independente para HO foi a FC na posição supina, a qual apresentou uma razão de chance de 3,23 se inferior a 61 bpm.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: The objective of this study was to determine the patterns of blood pressure (BP) changes during the head-up tilt (HUT) test, particularly in terms of its clinical significance for patients with orthostatic hypotension (OH). METHODS: OH was divided into four categories based on systolic BP changes occurring within the first 10 minutes of the HUT test: sustained orthostatic hypotension (SOH), progressive orthostatic hypotension (POH), orthostatic hypotension with partial recovery (OHPR), and transient orthostatic hypotension (TOH). RESULTS: In total, 151 patients were analyzed: 65 with SOH, 38 with POH, 21 with OHPR, and 27 with TOH. POH patients exhibited the greatest reduction in systolic BP after HUT and were also the most likely to develop symptoms requiring early termination of the HUT test (42.1%, p < 0.001). Additionally, SOH patients exhibited smaller heart-rate variation with deep breathing values (p=0.003) and Valsalva ratios (p=0.022) compared to POH patients. The sweat volume was greatest in OHPR patients. CONCLUSIONS: Clinical characteristics, including the findings of autonomic function tests, differed between the OH patient groups. This might reflect differences in the underlying pathophysiologic mechanisms. Determining the patterns of BP changes during the HUT test may facilitate the development of effective management strategies in patients with OH.

BACKGROUND: Although orthostatic hypotension (OH) and cognitive impairment (CI) are common non-motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease (PD), the relationship between OH and CI remains to be clarified. This study was aimed to investigate the relationship between OH and CI in PD. METHODS: We recruited 192 patients who were diagnosed as PD based on the UK Brain Bank diagnostic criteria. The Hoehn & Yahr stages were ranged I to III and patients underwent extensive clinical evaluation, including brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for cerebral white matter hyperintensity (WMH), tilt table test, the Korean version of Montreal Cognitive Assessments and the Korean version of Mini-Mental Status Examination in one month from the first clinic visit. The participants were divided into two groups according to the presence of OH (OH+ vs. OH−) and cognitive function (cognitive normal, CN vs. CI), respectively. RESULTS: Significant relationship between OH and cognitive function (p=0.04) was found in our patients. The patients with OH+ had higher risk of CI by 2.6 times than that of OH+ patients. Maximum heart rate change during tilt table test was correlated with cognitive function and white matter changes, whereas blood pressure change during tilt table test showed no correlation with those parameters. CONCLUSIONS: There was significant relationship between OH and CI in PD. Therefore, PD patients with either symptom may need periodic evaluation and proper management for OH and cognitive functions.

Vertigo/dizziness is a common complaint in patients who are seeking a primary health clinic. Vertigo is traditionally attributed to damage of the vestibular system. Many peripheral and central vestibular disorders are usually presented with vertigo. However, patients with benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV), a leading cause of vertigo, may present with postural lightheadedness, near faint, imbalance rather than true vertigo. On the contrary, patients with orthostatic hypotension may present with true spinning vertigo, not dizziness. Persistent postural perceptual dizziness, a second most common cause of dizziness (after BPPV), is mainly occurred after organic vestibular disorders such as BPPV or vestibular neuritis, and classified as a chronic functional vestibular disorder. This article describes non-vestibular disorders presenting dizziness and/or vertigos, which conditions may be misdiagnosed as structural vestibular disorders.

The general concept and initial approach to syncope patients has been mentioned in the general sections. This special sections have been described the characteristics, diagnosis, and treatment with patient education for the each syncope. It has been described in order of reflex syncope, orthostatic hypotension, postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS), cardiac syncope, and unexplained syncope. Several clinical issues will have been dealt with in special issues. Neurological assessment is added when the patients were diagnosed with psychogenic pseudosyncope (PPS). Although many childhood syncope caused by reflex syncope, they are also presented as syncope caused by arrhythmic events in patients with congenital heart disease. In the elderly patients, syncope is because of not only a single cause of syncope but a combination of various conditions. In case of a syncope patient visiting the emergency department, a standardized systematic approach will be required to determine whether hospitalize the patient according to the risk of recurrence and the needs for the syncope management unit. We also mention recommendations on the limits of driving, exercising and social life style that are relevant to syncope in all patients. In this guideline, we reviewed the Korean published literatures and European/American guidelines on syncope. We, writing and publishing committee for evaluation and management guidelines of syncope in the Korean Society for Holter and Noninvasive Electrocardiography (KSHNE) under the Korean Heart Rhythm Society (KHRS) are very pleased to be able to publish this guideline. We also hope this guideline will be a good support to manage the syncope patients and a useful trigger for further research in Korea.

OBJECTIVES: Fall is a major cause of morbidity and mortality among older adults. Falls result from many various causes, and dizziness is important risk for falls, especially in the elderly. Research on the relationship between chronic dizziness and falls in elderly people has been rarely performed and these were no studies that analyzed the risk of falls according to subtypes of chronic dizziness. METHODS: We conducted a prospective study of the association between subtypes of chronic dizziness and falls in the elderly between 65 to 75 years. We divided dizzy patients into 5 groups according to the results of symptom, vestibular and autonomic function test. Falls and new events (acute dizziness or other medical conditions) were checked monthly by telephone or out patient department follow-up for 6 months. RESULTS: Thirty-four patients were enrolled and all completed follow-up for 6 months. Nine patients classified as the falling groups and 34 patients as nonfalling group. Whereas the frequencies of orthostatic hypotension (n=6, 67%) and vestibular dysfunction (n=1, 11%) were higher in fall group, psychogenic dizziness (n=12, 35%), and vestibular migraine (n=3, 9%) were more frequent in nonfall group. CONCLUSIONS: The presence of dizziness in the elderly is a strong predictor of fall, especially orthostatic hypotension is an important predictor of fall. In order to lower the risk of falls in the elderly, an approach based on the cause of dizziness is needed.

Orthostatic dizziness is a common dizziness syndrome characterized by nonvertiginous lightheadedness when patients rise to stand from a sitting or supine position. Orthostatic dizziness is commonly believed to derive from orthostatic hypotension (OH) or postural tachycardia syndrome (POTS). Tilt-table test and Valsalva maneuver are standardized methods for evaluating of adrenergic autonomic function and essential for diagnosis of OH and POTS. We described the guidelines and interpretations of the tilt-table test and Valsalva maneuver.
