Comparison of results from HDT administered with different techniques showed that 5-10 min in vertical position are enough to adequately evaluate mechanisms of circulation control. By that time hemodynamic shifts get stabilized. More precise assessment of the circulation regulation can be made when HDT is administered from initial supine rather than sitting position. Analysis of the ECG dynamics allows to elicit latent myocardial injuries. The exact quantitative characteristic of orthostatic disturbances makes it possible to give their pathophysiological estimate.
