Inappropriate sinus tachycardia is a condition in which the patient has a normal heart but an unusually fast heart rate, both at rest and in response to physical activity. It is a generally harmless type of arrhythmia (irregular heart rhythm). If the heart rate is persistently and severely elevated, this sustained level of exertion can damage the pumping ability of the heart; however, this is quite rare. The cause of inappropriate sinus tachycardia is not well understood. Some people believe that the syndrome may be closely related to another rare syndrome called

If the heart beats too rapidly it performs inefficiently and blood flow and blood pressure paradoxically are reduced. Postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS) is a form of tachycardia that occurs with a change in body position (eg, going from laying down to standing up) and which is generally due to dysautonomia Tachycardia is a general term that is applied in a lot of different contexts. Most generally it means pathologically increased heart rate. Paroxysmal Tachycardia Supraventricular Paroxysmal Tachycardia (SVT) Ventricular Paroxysmal Tachycardia (VT) sustained unsustained Tachycardia, as applied in adult medicine, is defined as a heart rate of over 100 beats per minute (BPM).

Several lines of evidence indicate that this disorder may result from sympathetic denervation of the legs.

Different degrees of orthostatic intolerance exist, but not a system of grading severity. We have developed a system that grades the severity of orthostatic intolerance by the three-pronged criteria of the rapidity of development and the severity of orthostatic symptoms, the ability of the subject to withstand orthostatic stresses, and the degree of interference with daily living. In this article, this system is presented, and one disorder, postural tachycardia syndrome (POTS), is examined

Definitions History Symptoms ... Prognosis Definitions It is estimated that over 500,000 Americans are afflicted with Orthostatic Intolerance. Despite the enormity of the number, these conditions are among the least understood of the autonomic disorders. Affecting predominately younger individuals, often in those under the age of thirty five, these syndromes affect more women than men. The onset can be sudden, and the impact can be significant on both lifestyle and on the capacity to work. Often, these conditions tend to be misdiagnosed as either a psychiatric or anxiety - related disorders, due to the nature of the symptoms. Standing upright results in a series of reflexive bodily responses, regulated by the Autonomic Nervous System , to compensate for the effect of gravity upon the distribution of blood. These conditions are a result of an inappropriate response to this change in body position.

Dysfunction of Nerve Transmission in Legs Related to Postural Tachycardia Syndrome due to Dysfunctional Nerves in Legs Why the study was done How the study was done The researchers measured increases in norepinephrine in the venous blood of the arms and legs of 10 patients and 8 normal subjects after stimulating the sympathetic nervous system. What the researchers found Sympathetic denervation in the legs is suggested by the minimal increases in norepinephrine observed in the leg veins of all 10 patients compared with larger increases observed in their arms and in the arms and legs of the normal subjects. The Briefing In Search of the Underlying Cause for Postural Tachycardia Syndrome Postural tachycardia syndrome usually affects young women in their 20s and 30s. According to these authors, however, the nonspecific nature of the symptoms and absence of orthostatic hypotension have led to a lack of recognition of this syndrome among physicians and researchers. The underlying cause of postural tachycardia is unknown. An abnormality in the sympathetic nerves supplying the legs is suggested by earlier research showing that patients with this syndrome have: A tendency for blood to pool in the legs when standing.

Neuropathic Postural Tachycardial Syndrome (NPTS) affects approximately 500,000 people in the U.S., primarily women between 20 and 45. Dr. Giris Jacob of the Technion-Israel Institute of Technology in Haifa, and Dr. David Robertson of Vanderbilt University in Tennessee, found that NPTS can be caused, in part, by genetic mutations or by disease that can occur after surgery, pregnancy, or an inflammatory illness. Drs. Jacob and Robertson published their findings in The New England Journal of Medicine (October 5, 2000) and Circulation: Journal of the American Heart Association (April 6, 1999; 99: 1706-1712). Dr. Julian Stewart, professor of physiology at New York Medical College, says the researchers have made significant advances in their field.

Affiliation: Divsion of Pediatrics and Adolescent Medicine, Department of Pediatrics, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD 21287. NLM Citation: PMID: 12006948 Chronic fatigue is a prominent symptom in a variety of overlapping syndromes of circulatory dysfunction, the most notable examples of which are neurally mediated hypotension (NMH) and postural tachycardia syndrome (POTS). An early suggestion that such abnormalities were treatable causes of symptoms in what we now call chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) was made in 1940 by Alexander MacLean and Edgar Allen.1 They described a group of patients who experienced excessive acceleration of the heart and hypotension after moving from the recumbent to the erect posture, usually associated with symptoms of orthostatic exhaustion, blurring of vision, weakness on exercise, and syncopal episodes. McLean and Allen attributed the tachycardia to a reduced venous return to the heart, in part because symptoms and hemodynamic changes could be provoked within 10 seconds by Flack's test, which involved forced expiration into a tube to maintain a mercury column at 40 mm, thereby reducing blood flow into the thorax.1,2

79. Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Recently the syndrome has undergone a renaissance as the postural orthostatic tachycardiasyndrome , acronymically POTS , reported in adults by workers at http://www.nymc.edu/fhp/centers/syncope/cfs.htm

Chronic Orthostatic Intolerance POTS [Circulatory Findings in POTS and CFS] Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Defined The chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) has been defined as a distinct clinical entity characterized by chronic, often relapsing, but always debilitating fatigue lasting for at least 6 months and causing impaired overall physical and mental functioning. Recent CDC criteria (1994) have been broadly formulated in order to standardize research in the field resulting in an operating framework which includes cognitive difficulties, pharyngitis, tender lymphadenopathy, muscle pain, joint pain, headache, sleep disturbance or poor sleep, and post-exercise malaise as central features of the illness. Since a precise etiology for the syndrome remains elusive, the diagnosis is largely made by exclusion once specific medical and psychiatric disorders are ruled out. A central imperative, is to determine to as great an extent as possible, whether there are any single or relatively small set of pathophysiologic entities causing the syndrome. goto top Varied Pathophysiology Proposed for CFS Investigations into the pathophysiology of CFS have remained inconclusive although several possibilities exist. For example, it might be expected that CFS patients could demonstrate striated muscle deficiencies. However, skeletal muscle energetics, structure and histopathology, physiology, and glycolytic activity have been normal and electromyographic results have been inconclusive in these patients. In vivo analyses of muscle energetics are similarly suggestive but not definitive. Cardiac studies have not consistently demonstrated defects in day-to-day cardiac fitness among CFS patients compared to other deconditioned people. Infectious and immune pathology have often been suspected but not conclusively demonstrated as major etiologic factors although studies hint at impaired inflammatory cytokines and cellular immunity.
