Long-term outcomes in patients with postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome with an average follow-up of over 20 years. [PDF]

J Intern Med
Abstract Background Postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS) is a chronic form of orthostatic intolerance that primarily affects female patients. There are scarce data evaluating the long‐term outcomes in POTS. Objectives This study sought to evaluate the long‐term impacts of POTS over multiple decades in adult patients.

Exercise in the postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome [PDF]

Autonomic Neuroscience, 2015
Patients with the Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS) have orthostatic intolerance, as well as exercise intolerance. Peak oxygen uptake (VO2peak) is generally lower in these patients compared with healthy sedentary individuals, suggesting a lower physical fitness level.

Postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS) [PDF]

BMJ Case Reports, 2013
Postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS) is a heterogeneous group of conditions characterised by autonomic dysfunction and an exaggerated sympathetic response to assuming an upright position. Up till recently, it was largely under-recognised as a clinical entity. There is now consensus about the definition of POTS as a greater than 30/min heart

Frequency of Arrhythmias and Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome in Patients With Marfan Syndrome: A Nationwide Inpatient Study

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2022
Background Marfan syndrome (MFS) is an autosomal dominant connective tissue disorder affecting multiple systems, particularly the cardiovascular system. The leading causes of death in MFS are aortopathies and valvular disease.

A review of postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome [PDF]

Europace, 2008
A 21-year-old female reports an 18-month history of light-headedness on standing. This is often associated with palpitations and a feeling of intense anxiety. She has had two black-outs in the past 12 months. She is not taking any regular medications. Her supine blood pressure was 126/84 mmHg with a heart rate of 76 bpm, and her upright blood pressure ...

Hemodynamic Effects of the Osmopressor Response: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2023
Background Rapidly consuming water may offer practical orthostatic hypotension therapy. However, its efficacy across disorders remains uncertain. This study aims to assess the impact of rapid 350‐ to 500‐mL water intake on systolic and diastolic blood ...

Postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome

The Nurse Practitioner, 2022
Abstract: Postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome is an underdiagnosed disorder of the autonomic nervous system. The median time to achieve correct diagnosis is 2 years and may take more than 10 years for some patients. Symptoms can be devastating to the daily life of patients and can result in long-term disability.
