Abstract
Objective. To estimate the prevalence of orthostatic hypotension (OH) and analyze its associations with geriatric syndromes (GS) in subjects aged ≥ 65 years.Design and methods. In total, 4308 subjects (30 % males) aged 65 to 107 years (mean age 78 ± 8 years) living in 11 regions of the Russian Federation were examined, who were divided into 3 age subgroups (65–74 years, 75–84 years and ≥ 85 years). All participants underwent a comprehensive geriatric assessment, which consisted of two stages: 1) questionnaire on a specially developed questionnaire; 2) objective examination. Orthostatic test was performed in 3982 (92,4 %) patients. OH was diagnosed with a decrease in systolic blood pressure (BP) by ≥ 20 mm Hg or diastolic BP — by ≥ 10 mm Hg (or a decrease in both parameters) within 3 minutes after switching to orthostasis.Results. The frequency of OH in all subjects was 7,9 %, including 6,7 % in subjects aged 65–74 years, 8,4 % — 75–84 years, 8,8 % — ≥ 85 years (p for trend = 0,093). Univariate regression analysis showed that with an age increase per every 1 year, the odds of OH increased by 1,4 % (odds ratio [OR] 1,014; 95 % confidence interval [CI] 1,001–1,028; p = 0,042). Univariate regression analysis also demonstrated that 5 of the 15 studied GSs were associated with the presence of OH: urinary (OR 1,41; 95 % CI 1,12–1,77; p = 0,004) and fecal (OR 1,61; 95 % CI 1,01–2,58; p = 0,046) incontinence, malnutrition (OR 1,77; 95 % CI 1,15–2,72; p = 0,009), visual deficit (OR 2,23; 95 % CI 1,47–3,40; p < 0,001) and falls in the previous year (OR 1,37; 95 % CI 1,08–1,75; p = 0,010). Multivariate regression analysis adjusted for age and sex found that only 2 GSs were independently associated with the presence of OH: urinary incontinence (OR 1,36; 95 % CI 1,08–1,72; p = 0,009) and visual deficit (OR 2,01; 95 % CI 1,37–3,19; p = 0,001).Conclusions. The EVKALIPT study first obtained domestic data on the prevalence of OH in subjects aged ≥ 65 years and studied the associations between OH and GSs.
期刊介绍:
The main aims of the Journal include collecting and generalizing the knowledge in hypertensiology; education and professional development of cardiologists and medical doctors of other specialties, who deal with different issues regarding diagnostics, management and prevention of hypertension in both clinical practice and research. The Journal also calls attention to the most urgent and up-to-date questions in hypertensiology, cardiology and related sciences. There are additional objectives, such as increasing the availability, accessibility and recognition of Russian medical scientific achievements at the international level by improving the quality of the publication and the way they are presented; enabling the exchange of opinions and information between scientists and their wider communication. The main criteria for publication selection fit with the mentioned objectives and include currency, singularity, scientific and practical novelty, applied relevance etc.
