Hemodynamic Effects of the Osmopressor Response: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

ABSTRACT: Background Rapidly consuming water may offer practical orthostatic hypotension therapy. However, its efficacy across disorders remains uncertain. This study aims to assess the impact of rapid 350- to 500-mL water intake on systolic and diastolic blood pressure (BP) and heart rate (HR) through a systematic review and meta-analysis. Methods and Results We systematically reviewed MEDLINE and Embase up to June 2023, including randomized controlled trials and prospective cohort studies. Using random-effects meta-analysis, we calculated pooled mean differences (MDs) for maximum hemodynamic effects of rapid 350- to 500-mL water bolus consumption. Participants with orthostatic hypotension experienced increased systolic BP (MD, 24.18 [95% CI, 15.48-32.88]) and diastolic BP (MD, 11.98 [95% CI, 8.87-
