Abstract

Orthostatic hypotension (OH) and cognitive dysfunction impair ADL and QOL in Parkinson’s disease (PD), and many cases of PD with OH exhibit cognitive dysfunction. Postprandial hypotension (PPH), supine hypertension (SH) and nocturnal hypertension (NH) are also related to cognitive dysfunction. Regulation of blood pressure fluctuation is important for preventing deterioration of cognitive dysfunction.
