People with faintinga condition known as syncope, can now go to HartKliniek Maastricht for a tilt table test. After a thorough questioning and basic cardiac examination, patients are examined on a special examination table.
Diagnosing and treating complaints related to fainting or POTS (postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome) appears to be a challenge within the current healthcare system. As a result, patients often live for a very long time in a state of uncertainty, fear, and uncertainty about the possible cause of their condition or how serious it is. Although fainting often has a harmless cause, it can also indicate more serious health problems.
Palpitations
POTS is a relatively new clinical syndrome in which patients experience symptoms of palpitations upon standing. POTS is a condition in which moving from a supine to a standing position causes an abnormally large increase in heart rate.
