Symptoms of orthostatic tachycardia The first sign is dizziness, which may be accompanied by a feeling of falling or nausea. After moving to a horizontal position, these symptoms disappear. Orthostatic tachycardia occurs in various diseases: epilepsy, pain in the heart, psychosomatic disorders, asthma, diabetes and other cardiac health disorders.

If the symptoms are severe, a pharmacological test may be prescribed - the patient does not get up from a lying position and his pulse is measured every hour. Repeat the procedure up to five times. The test results allow us to determine the patient's condition during procedures. Tachycardia, sinus arrhythmia, sinus node weakness, or cardiac conduction abnormalities may be detected.
