Authors: Cathy L. Pederson, Rachel E. Wilson Abstract Intensive, hospital-based rehabilitation programs are recommended for many POTS patients. Electronic surveys were taken by 1,130 POTS patients to assess the long-term effects of these programs, including a demographic questionnaire, the...

I've written an overview of the problems with Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS) criteria. https://mecfsskeptic.com/the-problems-with-pots/ A brief summary of the arguments looks like this: A heart rate increase of 30 bpm (or 40 bpm in 12–19-year-olds) is far from abnormal. Many...

Abstract Although diagnostic criteria have been developed characterizing postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS), no single set of criteria is universally accepted. Furthermore, there are gaps in the present criteria used to identify individuals who have this condition. The...

Abstract Background: The postural tachycardia syndrome is a common disorder that is characterized by chronic orthostatic symptoms and a dramatic increase in heart rate on standing, but that does not involve orthostatic hypotension. Several lines of evidence indicate that this disorder may result...

Abstract To characterize the idiopathic postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS), we reviewed the records of all patients aged 20 to 51 who presented to the Mayo Autonomic Reflex Laboratory and who exhibited tachycardia at rest or during head-up tilt. These patients were usually women...

I'd love to see a discussion about the different kinds of abnormalities of heart rate and blood pressure during tilt testing that Frans Visser talked about on the NIH ME/CFS Research Roadmap: Circulation Webinar (January 11, 2024): - POTS - Orthostatic hypotension - Syncope - No POTS, normal...

Impact of COVID-19 infection on baseline autonomic symptoms in patients with preexisting postural tachycardia syndrome and orthostatic intolerance: A retrospective study Abstract Background Postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS) and dysautonomia following a SARS-CoV-2 infection have...

Abstract Postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS) presents heterogeneously and is diagnosed when appropriate symptoms are present in conjunction with a heart rate increase of at least 30 beats-per-minute upon standing without orthostatic hypotension. Much of the current understanding...

Abstract Objective: This study assesses response to intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) in presumed autoimmune postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS). Background: POTS may be associated with autoimmune disorders, serum autoantibodies, or recent infection. Uncontrolled case studies...
