2015, Archives of Gerontology and GeriatricsCitation Excerpt :Low blood pressure may be the result of a neurodegenerative disease process causing impaired blood pressure auto regulation or behavioral changes, such as dietary changes and weight loss (Feldstein, 2012). Low blood pressure may cause a dysfunctional vascular system, may compromise perfusion of vital organs, including the brain, with subsequent decline in cognitive and physical functioning (Iadecola & Davisson, 2008; Strandgaard & Paulson, 1994). Recent findings from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey analysis showed that the association between low systemic BP and cognitive decline (Odden, Peralta, Haan, & Covinsky, 2012) was most pronounced in those who were physically frail (Sabayan et al., 2012).

2011, Journal of Emergency NursingCitation Excerpt :Structural hypertensive remodeling leads to permanent blood vessel narrowing and wall thickening, which resets the threshold of autoregulation of brain blood flow upward to a higher pressure.17 Reversible blood vessel changes also occur, consisting of sodium and water retention in the walls of the vessels of the brain in addition to muscular hypertrophy in the medial layer of arteries.17 Hence in chronic hypertension, the circulation in the brain becomes more tolerant to higher pressure; lowering blood pressure in hypertensive individuals to levels that would be tolerated by normotensive persons can lead to cerebral ischemia.18

2010, Disease-a-MonthCitation Excerpt :However, this also modifies the minimum values of pressure for which a reduction in the blood flow reaches the threshold of ischemia.6 It is important to emphasize that in hypertensive subjects whose blood pressure is under control with treatment, the autoregulation limits are much closer to those of normotensive subjects.17,18 The mechanisms by which high blood pressure determines a decline in the cognitive function are not completely understood, even though knowledge in this field is increasing.45
