The Application of Head-Up Tilt Test to Diagnose Hemodynamic Type of Orthostatic Intolerance in Children Aged Between 3 and 5 Years [PDF]
Objectives: The head-up tilt test (HUTT) is a useful tool to assess autonomic function and to reproduce neurally mediated reflex. In this study, we evaluated the use of HUTT in pediatric patients aged 3–5 years with orthostatic intolerance. Materials and

Detecting Orthostatic Intolerance in Long COVID in a Clinic Setting. [PDF]
Introduction: A likely mechanism of Long COVID (LC) is dysautonomia, manifesting as orthostatic intolerance (OI). In our LC service, all patients underwent a National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Lean Test (NLT), which can detect OI ...

Physiological assessment of orthostatic intolerance in chronic fatigue syndrome. [PDF]
Background Orthostatic intolerance-OI is common in Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome-ME/CFS. We used a 10-min passive vertical lean test as orthostatic challenge-OC and measured changes in vitals and end tidal CO 2 (eTCO2).
