This can be a life-threatening situation that requires prompt medical treatment.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Concerns about overall health and wellness in older adults often center around the dangers of high blood pressure. It\u2019s a valid concern, as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mayoclinic.org\/diseases-conditions\/high-blood-pressure\/symptoms-causes\/syc-20373410\">high blood pressure can lead to heart attack, stroke, Alzheimer\u2019s disease, or dementia.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>However, low blood pressure also deserves focus as it too can lead to adverse health outcomes. For example, low blood pressure can make daily activities and exercise difficult, leading to injuries if the person falls. The condition is also known as hypotension, the opposite of hypertension which refers to a high blood pressure condition.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.webmd.com\/heart\/understanding-low-blood-pressure-treatment\">Hypotension<\/a> is often treatable and sometimes curable if the underlying cause is also curable.<\/p>\n<h2>Signs and symptoms of low blood pressure<\/h2>\n<p>Low blood pressure is often caused by insufficient blood flow to vital organs. The condition can be split into two types:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Absolute hypotension: Your resting blood pressure is low<\/li>\n<li>Orthostatic hypotension: Your blood pressure drops within three minutes of standing up<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Hypotension can happen to anyone, but it\u2019s more common in older people because aging can naturally lower blood pressure. In some cases, low blood pressure in older people can be a sign of an underlying health condition, especially if it drops suddenly or occurs with symptoms such as:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Blurred or fading vision<\/li>\n<li>Dizziness or lightheadedness<\/li>\n<li>Trouble concentrating<\/li>\n<li>Fatigue<\/li>\n<li>Fainting<\/li>\n<li>Nausea<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>You can take your older loved one\u2019s blood pressure with a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.webmd.com\/hypertension-high-blood-pressure\/how-pick-home-blood-pressure-monitor\">home blood pressure monitor<\/a> available in most pharmacies. Follow the instructions carefully and keep records of the blood pressure readings.<\/p>\n<p>Hypotension is generally considered <a href=\"https:\/\/www.healthline.com\/health\/high-blood-pressure-hypertension\/blood-pressure-reading-explained\">a blood pressure reading of lower than 90 mm Hg for the top number (systolic) or 60 mm Hg for the bottom number (diastolic)<\/a>. Encourage your loved one to see their doctor if the monitor reports low blood pressure.<\/p>\n<p>Seek medical attention right away if the person is showing symptoms of shock as a result of a sudden drop in blood pressure, such as:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Confusion and disorientation<\/li>\n<li>Loss of skin color<\/li>\n<li>Weak and rapid pulse<\/li>\n<li>Rapid, shallow breathing<\/li>\n<li>Cold, clammy skin<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>What Can Cause Low Blood Pressure?<\/h2>\n<p>There are many possible causes of low blood pressure. It can result from something simple such as dehydration, blood loss from an injury, low iron levels, medications, or more severe health concerns.<\/p>\n<p>Your loved one\u2019s doctor will determine whether or not hypotension is present and try to determine the cause so they can formulate a treatment plan. Be sure to provide information about any recent health events the older adult may have in case they\u2019ve contributed to low blood pressure. Your doctor may also want to test for certain underlying conditions, such as diabetes or thyroid or hormonal problems, which can trigger hypotension.<\/p>\n<p>In many cases, treatment may involve changes to your loved one\u2019s diet or activity levels. Treatment may also involve medication. Ensure that your relative follows their doctor\u2019s advice to help manage their blood pressure and reduce its impact on their health and well-being.<\/p>\n<h2>How can you help prevent low blood pressure?<\/h2>\n<p>Your older loved one can reduce or prevent the symptoms of hypotension by following a few simple steps:<\/p>\n<h3>Stay hydrated<\/h3>\n<p>Water increases the blood volume in our bodies, which helps stabilize blood pressure. Caffeinated drinks such as coffee can cause dehydration, so balance coffee intake with lots of water and other fluids that do not contain caffeine. Alcohol can also dehydrate and trigger low blood pressure, so it\u2019s prudent to limit its intake.<\/p>\n<h3>Eat small, low-carb meals<\/h3>\n<p>Blood pressure can drop after big meals. To lower the risk, eat small meals several times per day. Also, limit foods high in carbohydrates such as bread, rice, pasta, and potatoes.<\/p>\n<h3>Get regular exercise<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Just 30 minutes of moderate physical activity every day can help reduce the risk of experiencing symptoms from low blood pressure. Also, avoid exercising in hot, humid conditions that can cause dizziness.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Be mindful of how you sit and get up<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Take care not to sit with crossed legs. Also, gently move from lying or sitting down to a standing position. Getting up too quickly can cause blood pressure to drop, resulting in dizziness, lightheadedness, or fuzzy vision.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Talk to your doctor<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At the first sign of hypotension, make an appointment to visit your doctor for a thorough examination. Depending on their findings, they will be able to recommend a treatment program for you that may include medication. They may also conduct a medication review if they feel your current medications could be contributing to your symptoms.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As we age, monitoring every aspect of your health and well-being can be challenging. Family members will often step in to help, but in many cases, they don\u2019t have the time or resources to provide full-time care on their own. <br \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, it\u2019s essential to know that you\u2019re not alone in ensuring your loved one has all the care they need to be happy, healthy, and content. <a href=\"https:\/\/carehop.ca\/\">Help with in-home health care is just a phone call away.<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In-home eldercare support in Etobicoke, Mississauga, and Brampton<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When your older loved one needs professional in-home care, Carehop is ready to help.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Our caregivers are fully trained and qualified to provide exceptionally compassionate care with encouraging smiles and happy demeanours. <a href=\"https:\/\/carehop.ca\/in-home-nursing-care\/\">Our professional 24\/7 on-demand or live-in respite care<\/a> focuses on your loved one\u2019s individual needs to ensure that they experience joy and sunshine in their home, every day.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We can also help with day-to-day tasks such as <a href=\"https:\/\/carehop.ca\/homemaking\/\">homemaking, cooking,<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/carehop.ca\/personal-care\/\">personal care,<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/carehop.ca\/activities-companionship\/\">keeping your loved one engaged with activities,<\/a> bringing peace of mind that their care needs are always kept first and foremost.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For more information about our in-home services, <a href=\"https:\/\/carehop.ca\/contact\/\">please feel free to contact us anytime.<\/a> We\u2019d love to discuss how our approach to quality health care can support your loved one and family when you need it the most.<br \/><\/span><\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]\n\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Important note: If you reached this article because someone is experiencing a sudden drop in blood pressure caused by uncontrolled bleeding, severe infections, or allergic reactions, please call 911 immediately.
