Key result
The Person-Environment-Occupation-Performance (PEOP) model can help occupational therapy practitioners conceptualize and organize barriers to functioning in individuals with POTS.
Why the study?
Individuals with POTS experience barriers that reduce functioning and quality of life, but resources regarding the functional impact on occupational performance are limited.
The PEOP model provides a structured framework for occupational therapy practitioners to understand and address functional barriers in patients with POTS.
May guide OT assessment of POTS barriers; leaves open whether PEOP model improves functional outcomes.
Individuals with postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS) experience many barriers that lead to decreased functioning and quality of life. At this time, there are limited resources regarding the functional impact of POTS on occupational performance. Therefore, this narrative review demonstrates how occupational therapy practitioners can conceptualize, categorize, and systematically organize their thinking around barriers individuals with POTS experience using the Person-Environment-Occupation-Performance (PEOP) model of practice.

Herrera et al. (2021) conducted a review in Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS). Person-Environment-Occupation-Performance (PEOP) model was evaluated. The Person-Environment-Occupation-Performance (PEOP) model can help occupational therapy practitioners conceptualize and organize barriers to functioning in individuals with POTS.
