Adults who experience hypertension while supine have a higher risk of adverse CVD events independently of their BP while seated, suggesting CVD may be missed if BP is measured only when seated upright.
For patients who had hypertension while supine but not while seated, elevations in risk were similar to those of peers who had hypertension while both seated and supine.
"Efforts to manage blood pressure during daily life may help lower blood pressure while sleeping. Future research should compare supine blood pressure measurements in the clinic with overnight measurements," Giao added., Wanpen Vongpatanasin, MD, clinical chair for the conference, said,"This finding highlights the importance of sustained control of BP in all body positions."
