A Tilt Table Test is a diagnostic procedure used to evaluate unexplained fainting (syncope) and dizziness by assessing how blood pressure and heart rate respond to changes in position.
✔ Indications: Recommended for patients experiencing recurrent fainting, dizziness, or suspected autonomic dysfunction.
✔ Procedure:
The patient lies on a special motorized table.
The table is gradually tilted to an upright position while monitoring heart rate, blood pressure, and symptoms.
✔ Purpose: Helps diagnose vasovagal syncope, orthostatic hypotension, and postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS).
✔ Benefits: A non-invasive, safe, and effective test to pinpoint causes of fainting episodes and guide appropriate treatment.
