A Study in Subjects With Neurogenic Orthostatic Hypotension
This is a study to evaluate the effects of CST-3056 on orthostatic symptoms and signs in subjects with neurogenic orthostatic hypotension (nOH).
POLish Registry of CArdioneuroablation and CArdioneuromodulation
The multicentre observational study POL-CA involves a wide spectrum of patients with a history of syncopy. The study recruits patients with diagnosed vasovagal syndrome, cardioinhibitory carotid sinus syndrome, symptomatic sinus bradycardia or atrioventricular block, postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome, orthostatic hypotension, and inappropriate sinus tachycardia syndrome. This is an observational, controlled …
Natural History Study of Synucleinopathies
Synucleinopathies are a group of rare diseases associated with worsening neurological deficits and the abnormal accumulation of the protein α-synuclein in the nervous system. Onset is usually in late adulthood at age 50 or older. Usually, synucleinopathies present clinically with slowness of movement, coordination difficulties or mild cognitive impairment. Development …
Hypercapnia in Orthostatic Hypotension
Type: prospective observational multicenter trial. Population of interest: adult patients undergoing laparoscopic appendectomy for acute appendicitis. Hypothesis : laparoscopic lavage during laparoscopic appendectomy is a practice that should be used in selected patients according to the intraperitoneal grade of contamination and grade of appendicitis. Nonregulated use of laparoscopic lavage cannot …
Treatment of Orthostatic Hypotension in SCI
The purpose of this study is to identify the effects of non-pharmacological and pharmacological anti-hypotensive treatment interventions on orthostatic hemodynamic responses, symptoms of autonomic dysreflexia and orthostatic hypotension, and levels of fatigue and comfort in hypotensive individuals with SCI.
Use of Accelerometer for Quantification of Neurogenic Orthostatic Hypotension Symptoms
The objective of this study is to find a more objective and accurate way to assess the efficacy of the treatment for neurogenic orthostatic hypotension. For this purpose, the investigators will use an activity monitor to determine the amount of time patients spend in the upright position (standing and walking; …
Autonomic Effects of Spinal Cord Stimulation in Spinal Cord Injury
The goal of this interventional crossover study is to determine the effects of transcutaneous spinal cord stimulation (TSCS) on the ability to perform moderate exercise and regulate core body temperature in the chronic spinal cord injury community. The main questions it aims to answer are: What are the effects of …
SalT Supplementation in Older Adults With Orthostatic Intolerance Disorders
Background Orthostatic hypotension (OH) is a common cause of falls, and key source of morbidity and mortality due to injury (e.g. hip fracture). Current guidelines recommend increasing salt intake in patients with symptomatic orthostatic hypotension. However, the evidence underpinning this recommendation is poor, based primarily on small trials with very …
Feasibility Study Assessing the Effect of Carbidopa/Levodopa Ratio on Orthostatic Hypotension in Multiple System Atrophy - Parkinsonian Type and Parkinson Disease.
This study is aimed at patients with multi-system atrophy - parkinsonian type (P-MSA) or Parkinson's disease (PD) receiving dopaminergic drugs and suffering from orthostatic hypotension (OH). OH is a drop in blood pressure when standing, which can lead to symptoms of dizziness, lightheadedness, a black veil in front of the …
The Value of Near-infrared Spectroscopy and Blood Pressure Measurements in Estimating Future Fall Risk in Older Adults
The investigators aim to study which measurements/definitions from continuous blood pressures measurements (using a Finometer) and from cerebral oxygenation measurements (using near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS)) are associated with future fall incidents in older adults at risk of falls.
