Delayed orthostatic hypotension in Parkinson’s disease and in the general ageing population
In PD individuals referred to tertiary settings, tilt-table testing more frequently disclosed dOH compared to age-matched individuals without parkinsonism. In PD, dOH is mainly driven by a progressive orthostatic systolic BP fall, increasing the risk of syncope. Given its prevalence and the potential for effective treatment, dOH should be actively screened for in clinical practice.
