General Discussion Orthostatic Hypotension (OH) describes an extreme drop in blood pressure that may occur when a person stands up suddenly and the blood pools in the blood vessels of the legs. Because of this pooling, the amount of blood carried back to the heart by the veins is decreased. Subsequently, less blood is pumped out from the heart, resulting in a sudden drop in blood pressure. By definition, the drop in blood pressure must be greater than 20 mm of mercury during contraction of the heart muscles (systole) and more than 10 mm of mercury during expansion of the heart muscles (diastole). Among children and teenagers, short-lived episodes of OH are normal and not uncommon. Episodes among the elderly are always to be taken seriously. Normally, specialized cells in the body (baroreceptors) quickly respond to changes in blood pressure. These baroreceptors then activate the autonomic nervous system to increase, via reflex action, levels of catecholamines (e.g. epinephrine, norepinephrine) in the body. Increased catecholamine levels rapidly restore the blood pressure. A defect in this spontaneous response (reflex), prevents the heart rate and blood pressure from rising adequately and orthostatic hypotension results. Fainting and falling are the usual consequences.

more about Hypotension

Low blood pressure
  • Hypotension is a condition in which the blood pressure (an index of the body's circulatory system) falls below what is considered to be normal. Blood pressure is a relative term that may vary with the patient's age (e.g., lower in infants, 80/40 millimeters of mercury), underlying medical condition, levels of stress, activity, medications and environment.
  • Blood pressure below 90mmHg systolic or 60mmHg diastolic (a drop in blood pressure) that results in symptoms such as dizziness, fainting (especially upon standing), cold extremities and pallor of skin, all point to

Implement the Sepsis Resuscitation Bundle:
Apply Vasopressors for Ongoing Hypotension Corresponding Bundle Item: 65 mm Hg. Background: Adequate fluid resuscitation is a prerequisite for the successful and appropriate use of vasopressors in patients with septic shock. In general, the end points of fluid resuscitation are the same as those for the use of pharmacologic hemodynamic support, i.e. MAP 65 mm Hg. Sometimes, fluid resuscitation alone may suffice. When an appropriate fluid challenge fails to restore an adequate arterial pressure and organ perfusion, therapy with vasopressor agents should be started. Vasopressor therapy may also be required transiently to sustain life and maintain perfusion in the face of life-threatening hypotension, even when hypovolemia has not been resolved or when a fluid challenge is in progress. Cautions: Although all the vasopressor agents generally result in an increase in blood pressure, concerns remain in clinical practice about their potentially inappropriate or detrimental use:
  • The most obvious of these relates to the inadequately volume-resuscitated patient, in whom vasopressor use may worsen already inadequate organ perfusion.

Hypotension and Bedside Leukocyte Reduction Filters
(You are encouraged to copy and distribute this letter) May 4, 1999 Dear Colleague: This is to alert you to the possibility that patients who receive blood products transfused through a bedside leukocyte reduction filter may develop a precipitous drop in blood pressure. These reactions have a rapid onset. In some cases, patients also develop respiratory distress and shock. In most situations, the reactions resolve when the transfusion is discontinued and when appropriate medical intervention is performed. Reports It was also noted that there are almost no adverse event reports associated with the use of in-process, leukocyte-reduced blood products, i.e., blood products that are leukocyte-reduced by blood collection centers or laboratories at the time of collection or after the product was stored. This may be because the longer storage time allows more time for bradykinin to break down before the product is transfused. Cause of problem A review of the literature indicates that many authors believe these reactions occur more frequently in patients receiving ACE inhibitor therapy. It is hypothesized that these reactions are due to the ACE inhibitors' tendency to retard degradation of bradykinin, a potent vasodilator. Some authors have shown evidence that bradykinin may be generated as a result of filtration at room temperature or when the storage period for filtered blood is insufficient to inactivate bradykinin. Others have discussed the possibility that these reactions occur when the negatively charged membranes in these filters activate Factor XII, one of the blood clotting factors, which triggers a production of bradykinin. However, there have also been adverse events reported with the use of positively charged filters.

Published Outline Top Dear Sir A 71-year-old man presented to the emergency department with a history of sudden onset of abdominal pain and feeling extremely unwell. He was taken ill suddenly while waiting for a bus. The vascular surgeons made a diagnosis of a leaking aortic aneurysm (but which was contained), and he was rushed to the operating theatre. The patient was stable cardiovascularly in the emergency room, and was actually hypertensive, with systolic blood pressure above 170 mmHg. He was found to be even more hypertensive in the anaesthesia room, with a systolic blood pressure of 200 mmHg. A 5-cm infrarenal aortic aneurysm was found at laparotomy, but it was not ruptured. There seemed to be no other pathology in the abdomen to explain his condition. This aneurysm was repaired uneventfully and the anaesthesia management was unremarkable, with stable cardiovascular and respiratory parameters. On closer examination of his medical notes, it was apparent the patient had moderate chronic obstructive airways disease, along with mild-to-moderate aortic and mitral valve regurgitation and some inferior wall hypokinesia that had been identified in a previous echocardiogram. It was thus felt prudent to transfer him to the intensive care unit for overnight monitoring and further stabilization. It was decided to keep him sedated, with his trachea intubated and lungs ventilated until the morning.

To the Editor: The hot flash is one of the most commonly encountered symptoms of menopause, yet there is little understanding of its underlying physiology. With its unpredictable onset and evanescent nature, this troubling symptom has been difficult to study. The peripheral vasodilatation and rise in skin temperature are readily apparent, but what else happens during a hot flash? A 46-year-old, hypertensive, black woman was participating in a study in which we were examining the relationship of sleep and stress to hypertension. On enrolling in the study, she reported having menopausal symptoms, including hot flashes. A continuous beat-to-beat blood-pressure recording Full Text of this Article
