Water carbonation and how well you tolerate standing up
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests whether drinking carbonated (fizzy) water changes how well your body handles standing up without feeling faint. If you are healthy and don’t have certain heart or nerve problems, you may be able to take part.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be healthy
- Speak and understand English well enough for the study
- You should not be pregnant or think you might be pregnant
- Do not have a history of heart (cardiovascular) disease
- Do not have a history of brain/nerve (neurological) disease

This study is testing a smart computer system that helps doctors diagnose orthostatic hypotension (a sudden drop in blood pressure when standing) more accurately. If you have Parkinson's, MSA, or diabetes and feel dizzy when standing, this might help you get a clearer diagnosis.
This study checks how your body controls breathing and heart rate when you stand up, especially if you get dizzy from low blood pressure. It may help researchers understand what causes symptoms and how to improve testing for people with this condition.
This study tests a new way to detect and warn about fainting in people with certain types of syncope (temporary loss of consciousness). It may help those who have already had a specific fainting evaluation called an ARS assessment.
This study looks at how blood pressure changes when older adults in the hospital stand up or eat, which can cause dizziness or falls. The goal is to better understand and manage these blood pressure drops.
This study tests whether special breathing exercises can help pregnant women with POTS (a condition where your heart races when you stand up). POTS causes dizziness, lightheadedness, and fainting, and this trial aims to see if breathing retraining makes these symptoms better during pregnancy.
This study looks at whether people who come to the hospital after a fainting spell can be safely watched for 24 hours inside the hospital, instead of being admitted for a longer stay. It may help doctors decide the best way to monitor low- and intermediate-risk fainting.
