A new survey for POTS and related conditions
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study is testing a new questionnaire to measure symptoms in people with POTS, IST, or vasovagal syncope. The goal is to create a tool that better captures how these conditions affect your daily life.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with POTS, IST (inappropriate sinus tachycardia), or vasovagal syncope.
- You do not have severe heart failure (NYHA class III or IV).
- You do not have severe COPD (GOLD stage 3 or 4, group C or D).
- You do not have active cancer that is not in remission.
- You do not have an autoimmune disease that requires long-term steroids or immune-suppressing medications.
- You do not have end-stage kidney disease on dialysis, liver cirrhosis, or a history of organ or bone marrow transplant requiring immune-suppressing drugs.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study looks at why some people develop POTS (a condition that causes a fast heart rate and dizziness when standing) and if it's linked to how the brain and vagus nerve work together. It also includes people recovering from a serious infection and healthy volunteers for comparison.
This study looks at how improving “vagal nerve” function—through breathing-related training—may change brain connectivity in people with POTS, near-fainting, or fainting upon standing. It’s meant to better understand whether these changes could help symptoms and inform future treatments.
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 looks at how the body controls heart rate and blood flow in people with POTS (a condition that causes dizziness and a fast heart rate upon standing). It helps researchers understand POTS better by comparing patients with healthy volunteers.
This trial studies people with POTS (a condition where heart rate rises when you stand) and compares them with people without POTS. It tests body “adrenergic” (stress-chemistry) signals and how the body handles posture, which may help researchers find better ways to manage POTS.
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.
