Questionnaire for dysautonomia symptoms
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study is developing a questionnaire to better measure symptoms of dysautonomia, which affects automatic body functions like heart rate and blood pressure. It may help improve care for people with POTS, IST, or vasovagal syncope.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with POTS, IST, or vasovagal syncope.
- You do not have severe heart failure (NYHA Class III or IV).
- You do not have severe COPD (GOLD 3 or 4, Group C or D).
- You do not have active cancer (not in remission).
- You do not have an autoimmune disease requiring chronic steroids or immune-suppressing drugs (like rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, sarcoidosis, or psoriasis).
- You do not have end-stage kidney disease on dialysis, cirrhosis, or a history of organ or bone marrow transplant requiring immune-suppressing therapy.

Similar studies
Other trials that look related to this one.
This study asks heart failure patients who recently were hospitalized to answer regular questionnaires about how they're feeling. Researchers want to see if these questions can detect when heart failure is getting worse before a patient needs emergency care.
This trial studies whether an autoimmune (immune system–related) process is involved in postural tachycardia syndrome (POTS), a condition where your heart rate rises when you stand. The study may help researchers understand what causes POTS and how it could be treated or monitored.
This Phase 2 study looks at how blood pools in the belly veins when you stand or eat, in people with POTS (postural tachycardia syndrome). The goal is to understand what’s driving symptoms like feeling nearly faint and whether this helps guide better care.
This study tests simple body movements (like squeezing your legs or squatting) to see if they help control POTS symptoms. It may offer a non-drug way to manage dizziness and fast heart rate when standing.
This registry tracks people who have had or plan to have a procedure that changes the nerves controlling heart rate, such as cardioneuroablation. It aims to better understand and treat conditions like inappropriate tachycardia, POTS, and fainting spells.
This study measures how breathing patterns and heart rate/blood pressure change when you move from lying to standing in people with POTS. It may help researchers understand symptoms better and improve ways to manage them.
