It was due to the high prevalence and its adverse effect on the prognosis and quality of life of patients, especially the elderly and oldest old. The purpose of this review was to summarize the contemporary domestic and foreign literature data about disease. The article presents an updated definition of OH, modern classification, pathophysiology, feature of the course of OH in the elderly, recommendations for diagnosis and treatment. Particular attention is paid to reviewing the results of scientific research on the influence of OH on the risk of developing coronary and cerebrovascular events and overall mortality. OH is one of the forms of orthostatic tolerance and diagnostic criteria were determined by the 2011 Consensus as a sustained fall of systolic blood pressure by at least 20 mm Hg and/or a diastolic blood pressure by 10 mm Hg within 3 min of standing. The prevalence of OH ranges depending on the age of the patients and the presence of a number of concomitant diseases: from 6% in healthy people without arterial hypertension up to 50% or more in people older than 75 years with a comorbid pathology. OH is an independent predictor of overall mortality and adverse cardiovascular events. OH is associated with an increased risk of serious adverse cerebrovascular and coronary events, and may also contribute to cognitive impairment and the development of dementia. For today, we have three clinical options OH: classical, early and delayed OH. In addition, OH is classified based on etiology-primary and secondary; and pathophysiological principle-neurogenic OH and not a neurogenic OH (or functional). The algorithm for identifying patients with a high risk of development of OH and diagnostic methods are also presented. Non-medicamentous and medicamentous methods of OH treatment are considered.
