Evaluation of the Effect of Hydration About Orthostatic Hypotension in the Elderly. Difference With Venous Compression (CHHO)

October 1, 2015 updated by: Central Hospital, Nancy, France

Evaluation of the Effect of Hydration About Orthostatic Hypotension in the Elderly. Difference With Venous Compression. A Randomized Controlled Crossover Trial.

Primary objective: To compare the decrease in systolic blood pressure between hydration and venous contention when switching to a standing position. Hypothesis in that hydration is better than venous contention.

Secondary objective: To evaluate the effect of hydration on lowering systolic blood pressure during the passage standing in elderly patients with orthostatic hypotension.

Inclusion criteria: Patient aged over 75 years old with orthostatic hypotension proved to 1 and / or 3 min

Study Overview

Status

Unknown

Detailed Description

Day 0: confirmation of the orthostatic hypotension, without prevented measures

Two groups randomized :

  • Group 1: First day (day 1), Orthostatic Hypotension test after hydration by three large glasses of clear liquid (33cl). Second day (day 2), Orthostatic Hypotension test with venous contention in the morning.
  • Group 2: First day (day 1), Orthostatic Hypotension test after implementation of venous contention in the morning. Second day (day 2), Orthostatic Hypotension after hydration by three large glasses of clear liquid (33cl).
