2 Figure 1 (A) The patient had severe orthostatic hypotension, which had a dramatic effect on his heart rate (HR) and blood pressure (BP). (B) Valsalva-maneuver (VM) tracings showed a lack of blood pressure (SBP) recovery in phase II late (IIL) and an overshoot during phase IV. This indicated impaired sympathetic vasoconstrictor function. He had normal compensatory heart rate changes during the Valsalva maneuver.
