Stand-up study for dizziness when standing
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests a new approach to help people who feel dizzy or faint when standing up, especially if standard treatments haven't worked. It aims to improve daily life and reduce risks from low blood pressure.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study tests a wristwatch-like device that tracks blood pressure and heart rate continuously without needles. It may help people with orthostatic intolerance, a condition where blood pressure drops when standing, causing dizziness or fainting.
This study tests whether teaching special standing/balance movements can reduce fainting episodes in children who have recurring vasovagal fainting or certain forms of POTS. It may help your child feel more stable when standing and improve symptoms, while researchers measure balance and “counterpressure” responses during the tests.
This study checks how your blood pressure changes when you go from lying down to standing. It may help researchers understand why some people get “orthostatic hypertension” (higher blood pressure when standing) and how that reflex works.
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 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 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.
