Table 1.
Cardiovagal | |
---|---|
0 | Normal |
1 | HR_DB mildly reduced but >50% of minimum |
2 | HR_DB reduced to <50% of minimum or HR_DB + VR reduced |
3 | Both HR_DB and VR reduced to <50% of minimum |
| |
Adrenergic | |
| |
0 | Normal |
1 | Early phase II reduction >20 but <40 mmHg MBP (30–40 if >50 years) |
Late phase II does not return to baseline | |
Pulse pressure reduction to ≤50% of baseline | |
2 | Early phase II reduction >40 mmHg MBP |
3 | Early phase II reduction >40 mmHg + absent late phase II and phase IV |
HR_DB: heart rate response to deep breathing; VR: Valsalva ratio; MBP: mean blood pressure.
