Heart rate recovery and diastolic blood pressure ratio on the treadmill test predict an induction and recurrence of vasovagal syncope [PDF]
Background/Aims The induction and recurrence of syncope is a concerning situation that could be unpredicted in the vasovagal syncope (VVS). We investigated a simple predictor for the induced and recurrent VVS during Head-Up table-tilt Test (HUT) and ...

The Head-Up Tilt Table Test as a Measure of Autonomic Functioning among Patients with Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. [PDF]
Individuals with Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS) often experience autonomic symptoms. In the present study, we evaluated 193 adults seeking treatment for ME/CFS, who were recruited from an outpatient clinic.

Isoproterenol Causing Coronary Vasospasm and ST Elevations During Tilt Table Testing
Syncope is a sudden but reversible brief loss of consciousness secondary to an acute reduction of cerebral perfusion. Reflex syncope denotes neurologically mediated syncope, which includes vasovagal, carotid sinus syndrome, and other situational syncope.

Introduction Autonomic dysfunction is prevalent in ischemic stroke patients and associated with a worse clinical outcome. We aimed to evaluate autonomic dysfunction over time and the tolerability of the head-up tilt table test in an acute stroke setting ...

Saturation of the tilt aftereffect [PDF]
The tilt aftereffect increases as a logarithmic function of adapting time, reaches saturation after approx 1 hr and decays on a symmetric, logarithmic time-course.

Tilt table testing in the diagnosis of unexplained syncope [PDF]
While the investigation of the physiological and pathophysiological effects of orthostatic stress induced by head-up tilt table testing in humans began more than 50 years ago,1 it was not until 1986 that the utility of tilt testing in the diagnosis of unexplained syncope was demonstrated.2 In the absence of a `gold-standard' diagnostic test for ...

Tilt-table testing as a predictor of + GZ tolerance [PDF]
G-tolerance assessment is an essential element of both military pilot and pilot candidate evaluation.Attempt at prediction of individual relaxed + Gz tolerance on the basis of head-up tilt (HUT) testing.In two stages, 20 healthy men at the mean age 21.5 years took part in this study.

Does a Role Exist for Tilting-Guided Therapy in the Management of Neurocardiogenic Syncope?
PURPOSE: Upright tilt-table testing (UTT) is an useful method for identifying patients with neurocardiogenic syncope, but its role in the evaluation of therapeutic efficacy is controversial.

Test-retest reliability and four-week changes in cardiopulmonary fitness in stroke patients: evaluation using a robotics-assisted tilt table [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Exercise testing devices for evaluating cardiopulmonary fitness in patients with severe disability after stroke are lacking, but we have adapted a robotics-assisted tilt table (RATT) for cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET).
