Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Systolic BP diminution

    Systolic BP diminution when moving from supine to standing, measured with a semi-automatic blood pressure monitor \- AP in upright position: the lowest value of the measurements obtained every minute, for 5 minutes after rising.
