Impaired hemodynamic response to tilt, handgrip and Valsalva manoeuvre in patients with takotsubo syndrome.

CONCLUSIONS: Our data show that despite apparent resolution of the immediate effects of TTS, impaired response to cardiovascular challenge, similar to that in STEMI patients, persisted. As the manoeuvres applied mimic daily life situations, causes of impairment should be searched for and potential health risk evaluated. PMID: 31331695 [PubMed - in process]
