Zusammenfassung

Autonomic dysfunction is associated with idiopathic Parkinson's disease (IPS) and atypical Parkinson syndromes (APS) like multiple system atrophy (MSA). One approach to obtain quantitative information about the status of orthostatic hypotension, in which sympathetic adrenergic failure may be predominant, is to measure blood pressure response to active standing up or tilting after supine rest. However, continuous recording of blood pressure using commercial blood pressure monitors requires special equipment available only in specialized centers. We used the pulse wave latency (PWL) as a surrogate of beat-to-beat…
