BACKGROUND According to expert opinion, orthostatic hypotension (OH) associated to a change in heart rate (ΔHR) less than 15 bpm suggests neurogenic OH (NOH). Recently, the ratio between HR and systolic blood pressure changes at 3 min of tilt test (ΔHR/ΔSBP) has been proposed as a better index than the ΔHR cut-off of 17 bpm. Our aim was to validate these indexes based on HR in an independent cohort of patients who performed cardiovascular reflex tests according to standardized procedures at our Institution. METHODS We applied the HR indexes to all cardiovascular reflex tests that fulfilled the following criteria: (1) presence of classical OH at tilt test, (2) reliable Valsalva manoeuvre (VM), (3) absence of heart disease. We classified OH according to VM (absence of overshoot = NOH), and verified how many were correctly identified by ΔHR/ΔSBP (≤0.49 neurogenic) and ΔHR (≤17 and ≤15 neurogenic). RESULTS We identified 369 tests with OH. Based on VM, 335 were NOH. The ΔHR/ΔSBP ≤ 0.49 identified NOH with a sensitivity of 91% and a specificity of 59%, the ΔHR ≤ 17 bpm with 88% sensitivity and 38% specificity, and the ΔHR ≤ 15 bpm with 84% sensitivity and 50% specificity. CONCLUSION In our cohort, the ΔHR/ΔSBP ratio had a good sensitivity but a limited specificity to identify NOH. This easily applicable test may represent a valuable screening tool in a clinical setting to identify patients who need further detailed autonomic testing to confirm the neurogenic origin of OH.

验证压力反射功能的新指数以识别神经源性直立性低血压

背景 根据专家意见,与心率变化 (ΔHR) 小于 15 bpm 相关的直立性低血压 (OH) 提示神经源性 OH (NOH)。最近,已提出倾斜测试 3 分钟时 HR 和收缩压变化的比率 (ΔHR/ΔSBP) 作为比 17 bpm 的 ΔHR 截止值更好的指标。我们的目标是根据我们机构的标准化程序进行心血管反射测试的独立患者队列中的 HR 来验证这些指标。方法 我们将 HR 指数应用于满足以下标准的所有心血管反射测试:(1)在倾斜测试中存在经典 OH,(2)可靠的 Valsalva 动作(VM),(3)没有心脏病。我们根据 VM 对 OH 进行分类(没有过冲 = NOH),并验证了 ΔHR/ΔSBP(≤0. 49 神经源性)和 ΔHR(≤17 和 ≤15 神经源性)。结果 我们确定了 369 项带有 OH 的测试。基于 VM,335 是 NOH。ΔHR/ΔSBP ≤ 0.49 识别 NOH 的灵敏度为 91%,特异性为 59%,ΔHR ≤ 17 bpm 的灵敏度为 88%,特异性为 38%,ΔHR ≤ 15 bpm 的灵敏度为 84%,特异性为 50%。结论 在我们的队列中,ΔHR/ΔSBP 比值具有良好的灵敏度,但识别 NOH 的特异性有限。这种易于应用的测试可能是临床环境中一种有价值的筛查工具,用于识别需要进一步详细自主测试以确认 OH 神经源性起源的患者。ΔHR ≤ 17 bpm,敏感性为 88%,特异性为 38%,ΔHR ≤ 15 bpm,敏感性为 84%,特异性为 50%。结论 在我们的队列中,ΔHR/ΔSBP 比值具有良好的灵敏度,但识别 NOH 的特异性有限。这种易于应用的测试可能是临床环境中一种有价值的筛查工具,用于识别需要进一步详细自主测试以确认 OH 神经源性起源的患者。ΔHR ≤ 17 bpm,敏感性为 88%,特异性为 38%,ΔHR ≤ 15 bpm,敏感性为 84%,特异性为 50%。结论 在我们的队列中,ΔHR/ΔSBP 比值具有良好的灵敏度,但识别 NOH 的特异性有限。这种易于应用的测试可能是临床环境中一种有价值的筛查工具,用于识别需要进一步详细自主测试以确认 OH 神经源性起源的患者。
