The oral ingestion of water increases seated blood pressure in chronic autonomic failure although the mechanisms of this effect remain unclear. Recent studies in normal subjects suggest that oropharyngeal stimulation during swallowing may be of greater importance in causing a rise in blood pressure (BP) than the gastric effects of water. We therefore assessed the haemodynamic effects of water instilled directly into the stomach via a gastrostomy tube in pure autonomic failure (PAF).
