Autonomic dysfunction and postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome in post-acute COVID-19 syndrome

Nature Reviews Cardiology, Published online: 02 February 2023; doi:10.1038/s41569-023-00842-wThe post-acute sequelae of COVID-19 present major problems for many patients, their physicians and the health-care system. They are unrelated to the severity of the initial infection, are often highly symptomatic and can occur after vaccination. Many sequelae involve cardiovascular autonomic dysfunction, with postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome in 30% of individuals. Prognosis is unknown, and treatment is still unsatisfactory.
