Primary orthostatic hypotension

Primary Orthostatic Hypotension is a rare disease. In 1925, Bradbury and Eggleston first described in detail the clinical characteristics of the disease as orthostatic hypotension (that is, the blood pressure decreased significantly when suddenly standing from the supine or squatting position). , Syncope, fixed pulse rate (ie, there is no corresponding increase in heart rate when erect), no sweat, erectile dysfunction, and nocturia, etc., are called "spontaneous orthostatic hypotension."
