Patients with autonomic dysfunction are sensitive to any agent causing hypotension, such as those used inGA, and to being raised quickly from thesupine position. Some havemitral valve prolapse. View chapter Chapter Disturbances of Gastrointestinal Motility and the Nervous System ...
Objective: To report and discuss the pathophysiology of a primary spinal cord glioblastoma causing autonomic dysfunction leading to orthostatic hypotension, syncope, bradycardia, and eventually cardiac arrest.Background: Primary spinal cord glioblastoma is a rare and aggressive malignant tumor seen in only...
ANS analysis measures neuro-cardiac function which reflects heart-brain interactions and autonomic nervous system dynamics. The autonomic nervous system is involved in the function of virtually every organ system and clinical manifestations of autonomic dysfunction are involved in just about every disease....
Alteration of autonomic function is the main pathophysiology of most types of syncope, including syncope due to orthostatic hypotension and neurally mediated syncope or reflex syncope. The aim of this study was to investigate the difference in autonomic dysfunction assessed between each type of syncope...
The relationship between diffuse autonomic dysfunction and orthostatic hypotension in patients with long-term diabetes mellitus is also well known. We report on a 57-year-old morbidly obese male with a long medical history of hypertension, myocardial infarction, type 2 diabetes mellitus, and ...
Multiple system atrophy-this is a neurological disorder causing degeneration of nerve cells, causing alterations in autonomic functions and problems with movement and balance. Nerve damage- nerves may be damaged as a result or trauma or surgery, resulting in autonomic dysfunction. ...
The aim of the study was to investigate the relationship between syncope or presyncope occurrence and dysfunction of the cardiovascular autonomic system in patients with Parkinson disease (PD). Twenty-four PD patients were studied, including 10 subjects with syncope/presyncope and 14 controls without...
One limitation of QDIRT is that ambient room temperature and humidity need to be controlled to prevent cool dry air from causing evaporation of sweat production. Furthermore, normative values for QDIRT need to be established to avoid over-diagnosis of sudomotor dysfunction. Sudomotor testing has da...
