Reproducibility of postural changes of blood pressure in hypertensive elderly patients in primary care
Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To determine the reproducibility of postural changes of blood pressure among hypertensive elderly patients in a primary care setting. METHODS: Measurements of blood pressure were carried out in 60 community-dwelling hypertensive patients aged 65 years or more, in a sitting position and after 1-min and 3-min standing, and were repeated not more than 10 days later. RESULTS: A significant (P<0.05) fall in systolic and diastolic sitting blood pressure was observed between the first visit (151.1+/-20.8/79.7+/-10.1 mmHg) and the second visit (143.5+/-20.6/76.8+/-10.9 mmHg). The intraclass correlation coefficients of the repeated measurements were 0.46 (CI: 0.23-0.65) and 0.42 (CI: 0.17-0.61) for the changes in systolic blood pressure after 1- and 3-min standing, and 0.55 (CI: 0.34-0.71) and 0.40 (CI: 0.16-0.60) for diastolic blood pressure after 1- and 3-min standing, respectively. The repeatability coefficients were greater for the orthostatic changes of blood pressure (54-65%), which indicates lower reproducibility, than for the blood pressure levels on both visits (31-44%). CONCLUSIONS: The reproducibility of the postural changes of blood pressure found in hypertensive elderly patients in primary care is poor. This should be taken into account when making diagnoses of orthostatic hypotension in this type of patient.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
