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.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years old or older.
- You have been diagnosed with a condition that causes dizziness or fainting when standing (orthostatic intolerance or orthostatic hypotension).
- Standard treatments haven't helped enough, or you also have high blood pressure when lying down.
- You are not pregnant or breastfeeding.

- You do not have a bleeding disorder or a reason you cannot take blood thinners.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial studies a noninvasive monitoring method that measures blood flow and heart function while testing how your body responds to standing up. It may help improve how doctors check “autonomic function” in people who get symptoms with postural (standing) intolerance.
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 looks at how your heart and blood vessels work together when blood flow to your legs is reduced using a special chamber. It compares younger and older adults, and men and women, especially after light exercise.
This trial tests whether a non-invasive spinal stimulation device can help improve low blood pressure and dizziness when standing in people with spinal cord injury. It may be an option for those who have had a spinal cord injury for at least a year and experience blood pressure problems.
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.
