We examined the between-day reproducibility of active (squat-stand maneuvers)- and passive [oscillatory lower-body negative pressure (OLBNP) maneuvers]-driven oscillations in blood pressure. These relationships were examined in both younger (n = 10; 25 +/- 3 yr) and older (n = 9; 66 +/- 4 yr) adults. Each testing protocol incorporated rest (5 min), followed by driven maneuvers at 0.05 (5 min) and 0.10 (5 min) Hz to increase blood-pressure variability and improve assessment of the pressure-flow dynamics using linear transfer function analysis. Beat-to-beat blood pressure, middle cerebral artery velocity, and end-tidal partial pressure of CO2 were monitored. The pressure-flow relationship was quantified in the very low (0.02-0.07 Hz) and low (0.07-0.20 Hz) frequencies (LF; spontaneous data) and at 0.05 and 0.10 Hz (driven maneuvers point estimates). Although there were no between-age differences, very few spontaneous and OLBNP transfer function metrics met the criteria for acceptable reproducibility, as reflected in a between-day, within-subject coefficient of variation (CoV) of
