Talk:Tilt table test

Converted quotes to references and moved to orthostatic intolerance page as many were about OI not the til table test per se--Meaction (talk) 13:24, 21 November 2015 (PST)

Reference for IOM/tilt table test links to proposed diagnostic criteria, which does not mention tilt table test at all. If it's on the report, it needs to be linked to there. --Meaction (talk) 13:26, 21 November 2015 (PST)

orthostatic intolerance (OI) - The development of symptoms when standing upright, where symptoms are relieved upon reclining. Patients with orthostatic intolerance have trouble remaining upright for more than a few seconds or a few minutes, depending upon severity. In severe orthostatic intolerance, patients may not be able to sit upright in bed. Orthostatic intolerance is often a sign of dysautonomia. There are different types of orthostatic intolerance, including postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS).

National Academy of Medicine (NAM) - An American non-profit, non-governmental organization which provides expert advice to governmental agencies on issues relating to biomedical science, medicine and health. Formerly known as the Institute of Medicine (IOM).
