Abstract

Hypotensive syndromes like orthostatic hypotension, postprandial hypotension, exercise-induced hypotension, nocturnal hypotension, and intradialytic hypotension have been associated with chronic kidney disease. Even though it is a fairly common problem, it is under recognized in this population. Information about the association of vasovagal syndrome and carotid sinus hypersensitivity with chronic kidney disease (CKD) is lacking in the literature. Blood pressure circadian rhythm and autonomic dysfunction changes with CKD contribute to these hypotensive syndromes. Traditional management of these hypotensive syndromes should be considered in the management of these conditions with CKD and further research is needed.
