Background Investigating changes in brain electroencephalogram activity during blood pressure measurement in sitting and standing positions is clinically significant for understanding the neural correlates of postural changes, which may affect cerebral perfusion and autonomic regulation. Shifts in blood pressure can influence visual cortical activity, potentially altering cognitive and sensory processing. This research holds clinical relevance in evaluating disorders like orthostatic hypotension and syncope, where postural changes compromise cerebral blood flow.

Risk factors such as significant weight gain during the 1st trimester, maternal age and parity should be systematically investigated. Diagnosis is made by sleep recording.
