Abstract
Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome is a circulatory disorder that affects the blood flow in our body. This disorder is characterized by an abnormally large increment in the heart rate that occurs when most of the blood stays in the lower body while the person stands up and in response, the heart rate increases. When body position is changed, the heart rate also changes and hence to reach the blood to the brain, the heart begins beating abnormally. It thus leads to the possibility of a drop in blood pressure, which in turn disturbs the functioning of the body. This is known as Orthostatic Intolerance. It is referred to as one of the most popular indications of Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome. This disorder is mostly seen in women between the age of 15 and 50.
Causes & Symptoms
The symptoms are mostly associated with the reduced blood volume which arises when the person stands up from a reclining posture. Some of the familiar warnings of POTS contain :
- High/low heart rate
- Chest pain
- Dizziness/lightheadedness
- Exhaustion & Fainting
- Abdominal pain
- Jittery feelings & Nervousness
- Insomnia
- Temperature deregulation
- Forgetfulness & trouble focusing
- Blurred vision
Several diseases and health conditions like Anemia, Autoimmune diseases, Chronic fatigue syndrome, Diabetes, Multiple sclerosis etc. Post serious infection, pregnancy or head injury can also lead to this condition.
Diagnosis of POTS
It is difficult to diagnose due to the occurrence of multiple symptoms in the body at the same time. The symptoms may last from months to years before finally being diagnosed.
- TILT TABLE TEST- The Gold Standard of POTS Diagnosis. While you change posture and position, your heart rate and blood pressure are measured.
- Urine test, Blood test, EKG & Echocardiogram, Valsalva maneuver, Autonomic breathing test, Quantitative sudomotor axon reflex test, and Biopsy of your skin nerves are other tests tagged along for a better diagnosis of the condition.
Treatment Aspects
- Medications like Salt tablets, Pyridostigmine, Fludrocortisone, Midodrine or Beta Blocker can control the disorder to an extent.
- Medical Compression Stockings can help to push the blood up from the legs and thereby reduce the symptoms from developing. The compression can be applied to the thigh-high region.
- Monitoring the blood pressure and pulse is another way to look up the level of pulse, blood pressure and heart rate.
- Diet, sleep, a healthy lifestyle, positive communication and Mild exercises can also provide a better result along with the medications.
