Description
Cristiano Fava, Federica Stocchetti, and Sara Bonafini ask whether high blood pressure while lying flat should be treated in people with failing nerve control. Such patients often faint when they stand, yet face heart and vessel risks when they lie down. Their 2025 review weighs evidence from studies of organ harm.
Signs of harm, such as thick heart walls, stiff vessels, and kidney strain, track with the lying-flat pressure itself, not just the nerve disease. Life habits come first in care. When pressure stays high, drugs may guard organs, but they can worsen fainting on standing. The authors urge case-by-case choices that weigh both risks for each patient.
