Blood Pressure Regulation in Post–COVID POTS: Beyond Sinus Tachycardia
Patients with post-COVID-19 POTS demonstrate higher mean 24-hour and nighttime SBP and show disruptions of circadian BP rhythm regulation compared with population-based controls, as well as more daytime hypotensive episodes. Future studies are needed to test whether patients with post-COVID-19 POTS may benefit from tailored BP therapy.
