Purpose - To evaluate the use of Tilt Table Test (TTT) for the diagnosis ofvasovagal syncope in 50 patients presenting with recurrent unexplained syncope or presyncope and to assess their responses to drug treatment. Method - Case records of patients who underwent TTT during the period from Nov...
The purpose of the tilt table test is to help determine appropriate therapy for individuals with fainting (syncope) and presyncope of unexplained origin. Precautions Precautions are few with the tilt table test. However, when any drug is used with this test, the appropriate precautions for that ...
In 1986 Kenny et al.(37)showed that tilt-table testing was an effective mechanism for diagnosing problems with autonomic tone. Before this time, the dysfunction was suspected but untestable. The purpose of the tilt-table test is to remove the compensatory mechanism of skeletal muscle contractions...
A tilt table test is one of the most useful and controlled experimental methods used for this purpose. Over the years tests on tilt tables have contributed much to our understanding of how center of gravity height, track width, and various compliances and lashes affect rollover threshold....
Purpose We compared standing and upright tilt in patients with postural tachycardia syndrome (POTS) and healthy volunteers to determine whether standing accurately tests for POTS in youngsters < 19 years. POTS in adolescents is defined by orthostatic intolerance plus sustained excessive upright tachyc...

HEAD-UP TILT TABLE TESTING FOR ASSESSING SUSCEPTIBILITY TO VASOVAGAL SYNCOPE Although the mechanisms by which upright posture triggers vasovagal faints remains only incompletely understood, the head-up tilt table test has become the laboratory technique of choice for unmasking susceptibility to the vasovag...
This report describes a tilt table designed and built for transport Canada. This table is a test apparatus composed of a laterally tilting platform on which heavy trucks are driven and tilted in order to determine their rollover threshold. The report describes the design of the structure, the hy...
PURPOSE:To detect the inclination angle of tilt table without influence of torsion of tilt shaft by providing an inclination angle detecting shaft rotatably against the tilt shaft. CONSTITUTION:The tilt shaft 10 is provided rotatably against the fixed frame and a hole 10a is made while matching ...
