The use and effectiveness of exercise for managing postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome in young adults with joint hypermobility and related conditions: A scoping review
Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS) is a form of dysautonomia. It may occur in isolation, but frequently co-exists in individuals with hypermobile variants of Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS) and related conditions (chronic fatigue syndrome [CFS] and fibromyalgia). Exercise is recommended for non-pharmacological POTS management but needs to be individualised. This scoping review explores the current literature on use and effectiveness of exercise-based management for POTS, with specific focus on individuals with joint hypermobility and related conditions who experience hypermobility, and/or pain, and/or fatigue.
