Introduction: Adopting the 45 degrees semirecumbent position in mechanically ventilated critically ill patients is recommended, as it has been shown to reduce the incidence of ventilator-associated pneumonia. Although the benefits to the respiratory system are clear, it is not known whether elevating the head of the bed results in hemodynamic instability. We examined the effect of head of bed elevation (HBE) on hemodynamic status and investigated the factors that influence mean arterial pressure (MAP) and central venous oxygen saturation (ScvO(2)) when patients were positioned at 0 degrees, 30 degrees, and 45 degrees. Methods: Two hundred hemodynamically stable adults on invasive mechanical ventilation admitted to a multidisciplinary surgical intensive care unit were recruited. Patients' characteristics included catecholamine and sedative doses, the original angle of head of bed elevation (HBE), the level of positive end expiratory pressure (PEEP), duration and mode of mechanical ventilation. A sequence of HBE positions (0 degrees, 30 degrees, and 45 degrees) was adopted in random order, and MAP and ScvO(2) were measured at each position. Patients acted as their own controls. The influence of degree of HBE and of the covariables on MAP and ScvO(2) was analyzed by using liner mixed models. Additionally, uni- and multivariable logistic regression models were used to indentify risk factors for hypotension during HBE, defined as MAP <65 mmHg. Results: Changing HBE from supine to 45 degrees caused significant reductions in MAP (from 83.8 mmHg to 71.1 mmHg, P < 0.001) and ScvO(2) (76.1% to 74.3%, P < 0.001). Multivariable modeling revealed that mode and duration of mechanical ventilation, the norepinephrine dose, and HBE had statistically significant influences. Pressure-controlled ventilation was the most influential risk factor for hypotension when HBE was 45 degrees (odds ratio (OR) 2.33, 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.23 to 4.76, P = 0.017). Conclusions: HBE to the 4
