Clinical trials: Supine Hypertension
Glaucoma
Effect of Myocilin Genetic Variants on Intraocular Pressure and Pressure Variation in Sitting and Supine Positions
The purpose of this study is to determine if one of the genes that can cause glaucoma, called myocilin, are associated with larger eye pressure and blood pressure changes in sitting and lying down positions without glaucoma drug…

Hypertension, Pure Autonomic Failure
Local Heat Stress in Autonomic Failure Patients With Supine Hypertension
Patients with autonomic failure are characterized by disabling orthostatic hypotension (low blood pressure on standing), and at least half of them also have high blood pressure while lying down (supine hypertension).

- NCT02417415
- Testing
- Passive heat stress, Control (non-heating)
- Where
- United States
- Volunteers
