24-hour Blood Pressure Variability and Falls Among Older Adults with Hypertension Taking Antihypertensive Medication: Results from the AMBROSIA Study.
BACKGROUND Higher short-term blood pressure (BP) variability (BPV) can reflect impaired autonomic regulation of BP in response to postural change and physical activity, which could precipitate falls through transient cerebral hypoperfusion and loss of postural stability. We hypothesized that higher short-term BPV asses...
