Abstract:
Orthostatic hypotension (OH) is a common cardiovascular symptom,divided into neurogenic and non-neurogenic categories according to pathophysiology,both of which are associated with impaired quality of life and potential adverse outcomes.Due to the complex influential factors,diagnosis and treatment often require multidisciplinary cooperation and individualization.But domestic doctors pay little attention to the diagnosis and treatment of OH.This consensus,co-authored by experts from relevant professional fields including cardiology,neurology and psychology,systematically describes the concept,pathophysiology,classification and clinical characteristics of OH.The recommendations on the diagnosis,evaluation and treatment of OH were put forward to improve the attention of clinicians to OH and their ability of diagnosis and treatment.
