Postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome is an underdiagnosed autonomic disorder that takes a median of 2 years to correctly diagnose and can cause long-term disability.
Why the study?
Postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome is an underdiagnosed autonomic disorder with diagnostic delays, debilitating symptoms, and limited treatment availability.
POTS is an underdiagnosed autonomic disorder with significant diagnostic delays and limited treatment options.
Postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome is an underdiagnosed disorder of the autonomic nervous system. The median time to achieve correct diagnosis is 2 years and may take more than 10 years for some patients.
