COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF SYSTOLIC BLOOD PRESSURE AND HEART RATE ORTHOSTATIC REACTIONS IN HEALTHY SUBJECTS AND ARTERIAL HYPERTENSION PATIENTS
Abstract
Age and gender difference of SBP orthostatic reaction types and HR in healthy subjects and AH patients were found. Rate of SBP hyper- and hypotensive reaction types decrease with age. Frequency of hypertensive type in AH is increased. HR increases in orthostasis disregarding SBP reaction type, the extent of growth increases from hyper- to hypotensive reaction. HR reactivity is higher in males.
