Orthostatic Hypercoagulability: A Novel Physiological Mechanism to Activate the Coagulation System

Orthostatic stress causes significant plasma shift and raises transmural pressure in lower extremities, resulting in an increase in endothelial activation and plasma proteins concentrations, possibly including coagulation factors. This may lead to activation of the coagulation system during standing...

description Orthostatic stress causes significant plasma shift and raises transmural pressure in lower extremities, resulting in an increase in endothelial activation and plasma proteins concentrations, possibly including coagulation factors. This may lead to activation of the coagulation system during standing. To test this hypothesis, we recruited 18 healthy volunteers (9 females and 9 males; mean age25±1.2 years; body mass index21.7±0.5 kg/m). Hemodynamics, plasma shift (extrapolated from sequential hematocrit concentration), plasma proteins, and coagulation tests, including procoagulants; fibrinogen, factor V, and factor VIII activity; prothrombin fragments 1 and 2; and endothelial activation–related factors (tissue factor and von Willebrand factor), as well as protein C global pathway, were determined at rest supine and at 15 minutes, 30 minutes, and 60 minutes of still standing. Thirty minutes of standing caused a decrease in plasma volume by 12.0±0.5% and an increase in plasma protein by 13.0±0.7%. Fibrinogen, factor V, and factor VIII activity rose by 12.0±1.2%, 13.0±1.0%, and 40.0±6.0% (P
