Blood pressure variability and hypotensoin episodes in patient with arterial hypertension

Abstract

The article presents a review of literature on the occurrence of episodes of hypotension and arterial hypotension in general in patients with arterial hypertension. Problems of arterial pressure (AP) permissible lower limit and physiological basis of low AP negative values are considered. The article is also covering the main clinical manifestations and prognostic significance of hypotension. The occurrence of episodes of hypotension is considered as a manifestation of AP variability, the main types of variability of AP, evaluation methods, prognostic value. The main types of AP variability, evaluation methods, prognostic significance are described. The article also assesses the drugs influencing the variability of arterial pressure.

Keywords: arterial hypertension, blood pressure variability, arterial hypotension, episodes of hypotension
