Test-retest reliability and four-week changes in cardiopulmonary fitness in stroke patients: evaluation using a robotics-assisted tilt table [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
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).

Feasibility of Blood Pressure Measurement With a Wearable (Watch‐Type) Monitor During Impending Syncopal Episodes

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2022
Background We assessed the reliability and feasibility of blood pressure (BP) measurements by means of a new wearable watch‐type BP monitor (HeartGuide) in detecting episodes of hypotensive (pre)syncope induced by tilt table test.

Comparison of peak cardiopulmonary performance parameters on a robotics-assisted tilt table, a cycle and a treadmill [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Robotics-assisted tilt table (RATT) technology provides body support, cyclical stepping movement and physiological loading. This technology can potentially be used to facilitate the estimation of peak cardiopulmonary performance parameters in patients ...

Syncope associated with supraventricular tachycardia: Diagnostic role of implantable loop recorders

open access: yesAnnals of Noninvasive Electrocardiology, 2021
Syncope represents a relatively uncommon symptom of supraventricular tachycardia (SVT). It is likely that an impaired autonomic vasomotor response to the hemodynamic stress of tachycardia is the determinant of hemodynamic changes leading to cerebral ...

Investigation of robotics-assisted tilt table technology for cardiopulmonary exercise testing in stroke patients [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Due to the lack of exercise testing devices that can be employed in stroke patients with severe disability, the aim of this PhD research was to investigate the clinical feasibility of using a robotics-assisted tilt table (RATT) as a method for ...

Tilt-table testing: down but not out [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Practice, 2014
Clin. Pract. (2014) 11(3), 265–268 ISSN 2044-9038 part of Syncope is very common, with the overall incidence for first syncope being 6.2 per 1000 patient years, increasing to 20 in females aged over 80 years [1]. Vasovagal syncope (VVS) is by far the most common cause, explaining over 20% of cases, with an underlying cardiac cause in 10% of cases and ...

Reproducibility of tilt-table test with different dosages of sublingual nitroglycerin

open access: yes, 2019
Reproducibility of tilt-table test potentiated with sublingual nitrate is significant since it is directly related to diagnostic accuracy of the test. Nitrates shorten the test time and increase the sensitivity of the test.

Diagnostic value of the tilt-table test for the assessment of syncope in children and adolescents

open access: yesArquivos Brasileiros de Cardiologia, 2001
OBJECTIVE - To assess the diagnostic value, the characteristics, and feasibility of tilt-table testing in children and adolescents. METHODS - From August 1991 to June 1997, we retrospectively assessed 94 patients under the age of 18 years who had a ...

Cooccurrence of Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome with Two Different Clinical Entities

open access: yesCase Reports in Pediatrics, 2016
Postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS) is an abnormal heart rate response to a positional change. Several potential mechanisms for pathophysiology of POTS are defined. This syndrome can coexist with different clinical situations. In our report,
