orthostatic tachycardia

There has been at least one case report of Red Bull overdose causing postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome in a young athlete.

House thinks it could be postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS), causing his blood pressure to plummet when he's upright.

Postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS)

Newton's current interests, however, are focused on how fatigue develops, and she proposes "postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome" as a possible cause of chronic fatigue syndrome.

Methylphenidate (Ritalin) is a stimulant drug approved for therapy of attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome and narcolepsy.

Some SSRI drugs are also occasionally tried and also treatments more commonly used to treat postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome such as fludrocortisone.

Its effects on increasing Na+ levels, and therefore blood volume, make it useful as an off label treatment for postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS)

Research on CFS orthostatic intolerance shows associations with neurally mediated hypotension and postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome, as well as hypocapnia.

His condition was diagnosed as multiple sclerosis, epilepsy, and about ten other things, including postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome, or POTS, a verdict he resented because its acronym was so lame.

The orthostatic intolerance observed by Da Costa has since also been found in patients diagnosed with chronic fatigue syndrome, postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS) and mitral valve prolapse syndrome.

Strives to heighten awareness of dysautonomia conditions (postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome, neurally mediated hypotension, neurocardiogenic syncope, vasovagal syncope, generalized dysautonomia, birth dysautonomia, non-familial dysautonomia, post-viral dysautonomia) within the pediatric and adolescent medical communities.

Postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS, also postural tachycardia syndrome) is a condition of dysautonomia, to be more specific orthostatic intolerance, in which a change from the supine position to an upright position causes an abnormally large increase in heart rate, called tachycardia.

Recently, an epigenetic mechanism (chromatin remodelling and gene supression of the norepinephrine transporter gene) that results in reduced expression of the norepinephrine transporter and consequently a phenotype of impaired neuronal reuptake of norepinephrine has been implicated in the postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome.
