Abstract
Healthy elderly subjects (≥65 years) did not show the prominent low frequency (0.07–0.09 Hz) heart rate oscillations (Mayer waves) recorded in young adults immediately following passive upright tilt. This difference may be related to altered autonomic function with physiologic aging.Keywords
