To date there have only been limited studies exploring abnormal hemodynamic responses to head-up tilt tests (HUTs) in elderly, treated patients with hypertension. Cardiovascular regulation in response to HUT as well as upright hemodynamics may be altered when older hypertensive patients with antihypertensive treatments are studied. Hypertensive patients with and without receiving antihypertensive medication and above the age of 45 were recruited in this study. This study compared the cardiovascular responses to HUT and at rest between healthy and hypertensives using non-invasive hemodynamic measurements. Parameters such as systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), heart rate (HR), stroke index (SI) and total peripheral resistance index (TPRI) were measured in 40 subjects (20 healthy and 20 hypertensives) for 10-min supine baseline, 10-min HUT at 70◦ and 6-min supine recovery. At rest and during HUT, SBP and TPRI were significantly higher in hypertensives together with a significantly smaller baseline SI. In response to HUT, both groups showed changes in hemodynamic parameters at differing degrees. During recovery, all parameters returned to the baseline range. Our findings indicated that hypertensive patients of older age being treated by antihypertensive drugs may have different cardiovascular changes in response to orthostatic stress.Clinical Relevance- This pilot study describes how cardiovascular regulation in response to postural change may behave differently in hypertensive elder patients taking antihypertensive drugs.
