Popis: | Postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS) is a disabling condition characterized by orthostatic intolerance with tachycardia in the absence of drop-in blood pressure. A custom-built near-infrared spectroscopy device (NIRS) is applied to monitor the muscle oxygenation, noninvasively in patients undergoing incremental head-up tilt table (HUT). Subjects (6 POTS patients and 6 healthy controls) underwent 30[Formula: see text]mins of 70∘ on a HUT. The results showed a significant difference in deoxyhemoglobin (Hb), change-in-oxygenation [Formula: see text] and blood volume [Formula: see text] between patients and healthy controls. However, oxyhemoglobin (HbO2) showed a significantly faster rate of change in the healthy controls during the first 10[Formula: see text]mins of the tilt and during the recovery. This NIRS muscle oximetry tool provides quantitative measurements of blood oxygenation monitoring in diseases such as POTS. |
