Study Summary
The purpose of this study is to learn more about the effects of abdominal compression and the medication midodrine, two interventions used for the treatment of orthostatic hypotension (low blood pressure on standing), on hemodynamic markers of cardiovascular risk. The study will be conducted at the Vanderbilt University Medical Center and consists of a screening and 2 testing days, one with abdominal compression and one with midodrine. The total length of the study will be about 5 days.
Primary Outcome
Change from baseline in upright augmentation index, used as a marker of cardiovascular risk associated with systemic arterial stiffness, wave reflection, and the resulting pulsatile workload imposed on the left ventricle. Higher values suggest greater risk.
