Abstract
Background:24-hour ambulatory blood pressure and heart rate monitoring (24hr-ABPM) can provide vital information on circadian blood pressure (BP) profiles, which are commonly abnormal in Parkinson’s disease with and without autonomic failure (PD+AF and PD) and multiple system atrophy (MSA). 24hr-ABPM has not been directly compared between these disorders regarding cardiovascular autonomic function. We aim to determine the usefulness of 24hr-ABPM with diary compared to Head-up Tilting (HUT) in diagnosing orthostatic hypotension (OH) in these patients.
Methods: 74 patients (23 MSA,18 PD+AF,33 PD) underwent cardiovascular autonomic screening followed by 24hr-ABPM with diary. Standing tests were included during 24hr-ABPM. The sensitivity and specificity in detecting OH from the 24hr-ABPM standing test were compared with HUT.
Results: There was no difference in OH during HUT between MSA and PD+AF (p>0.05). MSA and PD+AF had a higher proportion of abnormal BP circadian rhythms compared to PD (p<0.05) but not between MSA and PD+AF (p>0.05). Patients were divided into groups with (OH+) and without OH (OH-) on HUT. Using the standing test during 24hr-ABPM, a SBP fall of >20 mmHg showed a sensitivity and specificity of 82% and 100 % (AUC 0.91, 95% CI 0.84-0.98) in differentiating OH+ from OH-, respectively.
Conclusions:PD+AF and MSA patients had similar circadian BP patterns suggesting that autonomic dysfunction influences abnormal BP circadian patterns similarly in these disorders. The higher sensitivity and specificity in detecting OH using a SBP fall of >20 mmHg compared to a DBP fall of >10 mmHg during standing test supports its usefulness to assess autonomic function in MSA and PD.
