Postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome: A conundrum for patients and healthcare providers

Abstract:

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. Symptoms can be devastating to the daily life of patients and can result in long-term disability. Treatment availability is limited due to the need for further studies.
