Postural Tachycardia Syndrome [PDF]
Circulation, 2008 When a person stands up, he or she assumes that the body will automatically make any changes necessary to compensate for the increased gravitational stress this change of position brings. Indeed, standing causes gravity to try to pull nearly one quarter of the body’s blood downward toward the lower arms, legs, and abdomen, reducing the amount of blood ...

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.
