Filter by:Patients who will undergo colonoscopy accompanied by sedoanalgesia will be admitted at Aksaray Training and Research Hospital Gastroenterology Clinic between May and July 2024. Orthostatic hypotension will be evaluated after patients meet the discharge criteria in the postoperative recovery unit.
The goal of this clinical trial is to explore raise-bed training Orthostatic Hypotension in Parkinson's Patients. The main question it aims to answer is: Can raise-bed training improve Orthostatic Hypotension in Parkinson's Patients. Patients will be randomly allocated into the control group or the experimental group, all under rehabilitation treatment, the experimental group will be given raise-bed training. The study lasts 21 days for each patient. Researchers will compare Orthostatic Hypotension Questionnaire, Orthostatic Grading Scale, Composite Autonomic Symptom Scale 31 to see if raise-bed training can help improve the symptom

Background Orthostatic hypotension (OH) is a common cause of falls, and key source of morbidity and mortality due to injury (e.g. hip fracture). Current guidelines recommend increasing salt intake in patients with symptomatic orthostatic hypotension. However, the evidence underpinning this recommendation is poor, based primarily on small trials with very short-term follow-up (< 6 weeks). Clinical Equipoise (Overall) High salt intake might improve quality of life and reduce the risk of falls, but might also increase the risk of cardiovascular disease, in patients with OH. Specific Objective of Current Application (Aim) To determine feasibility (recruitment, retention and adherence) of conducting a randomized controlled trial evaluating high salt intake in older adults with symptomatic orthostatic hypotension. To determine preliminary estimates of the effect of high salt intake on disease-specific quality of life, orthostatic blood pressure (BP) parameters, and cardiac blood biomarkers. Design: Phase IIa, parallel, double-blind, randomised controlled, single centre clinical trial of 12 month follow-up duration. Population: Older adults (≥65 years of age) with an objective diagnosis of symptomatic orthostatic hypotension Intervention: The intervention will be 5g/day of salt supplementation in the form of encapsulated sodium chloride. Outcome measures: Primary outcome (Feasibility) recruitment and retention rates, adherence with intervention and study protocol, completeness of follow-up. Secondary Outcome (Efficacy): i) clinical: change in Orthostatic Hypotension Questionnaire score, modification/addition of OH pharmacotherapy, and falls events, ii) physiological measures of orthostasis: change in difference between supine and nadir systolic BP, standing BP at 1 minute, 24 hour mean BP measured by 24 hour ambulatory BP monitor, iii) cardiovascular biomarkers. Clinical Importance: A recommendation for long-term increases in salt intake may have adverse cardiovascular consequences, which necessitates the identification of the optimal range of salt intake associated with greatest reduction in falls risk and lowest cardiovascular risk. Our study will provide preliminary evidence of treatment effect and assess feasibility, to inform a definitive trial.
The goal of this clinical trial is to test a novel medical device (ISO-101) in patients diagnosied with orthostatic hypotension. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - to determine whether the ISO-101 device demonstrates a signal of efficacy in people with OH and whether it is worthy of further clinical evaluation. - Assess the safety and performance of the ISO-101 device in patients with orthostatic hypotension. Participants will use the device under controlled conditions and have the following parameters measured before and after standing up: - blood pressure - markers of peripheal vascular resistence - sympathetic nervous system activity measure before and after standing up
In this study, the SCI patients were sub-grouped on the basis of symptoms into symptomatic and asymptomatic groups and measured HRV during resting and tilt up tests to compare their cardiovascular autonomic functions.
The goal of this interventional crossover study is to determine the effects of transcutaneous spinal cord stimulation (TSCS) on the ability to perform moderate exercise and regulate core body temperature in the chronic spinal cord injury community. The main questions it aims to answer are: - What are the effects of active TSCS targeted for BP control on exercise endurance time and HR recovery during submaximal arm cycle ergometry (ACE) as compared to sham TSCS in participants with chronic, cervical SCI? - What are the effects of active TSCS on Tcore responses to cool ambient exposure and on subjective reporting of thermal comfort and thermal sensitivity as compared to sham TSCS. Participants will receive sham and active stimulation while using an arm bicycle or while in a cold room. Participants are free to participate in either the exercise phase, the cold room phase, or both phases of this study. Please note that there no expected long term benefits of this study.
The goal of this interventional study is to evaluate the safety and preliminary effectiveness of the ARC-IM Therapy to improve hemodynamic management in people with sub-acute or chronic spinal cord injury. Participants will be implanted with the ARC-IM Thoracic System which aim to deliver, at the low thoracic level, targeted epidural electrical stimulation that will support natural hemodynamic control.
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the effect of transcutaneous spinal cord stimulation on blood pressure in individuals with an acute spinal cord injury (within 30 days of injury). Blood pressure instability, specifically orthostatic hypotension (a drop in blood pressure when moving lying flat on your back to an upright position), appears early after the injury and often significantly interferes with participation in the critical rehabilitation time period. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Can optimal spinal stimulation increase blood pressure and resolve orthostatic symptoms (such as dizziness and nausea) when individuals undergo an orthostatic provocation (a sit-up test)? Optimal stimulation and sham stimulation (which is similar to a placebo treatment) will be compared. 2. What are the various spinal sites and stimulation parameters that can be used to increase and stabilize blood pressure to the normal range of 110-120 mmHg? Participants will undergo orthostatic tests (lying on a bed that starts out flat and then moved into an upright seated position by raising the head of bed by 90° and dropping the base of the bed by 90° from the knee) with optimal and sham stimulation, and their blood pressure measurements will be evaluated and compared.
SynABPM 2 proof-of-efficacy is a retrospective, multicentre, observational study performed in patients affected by hypotensive reflex syncope who had performed two ABPMs, one before and another after any therapeutical intervention aimed to increase arterial blood pressure
