About

This research investigated the heart rate variability (HRV) and stroke patients' orthostatic hypotension in hospitalized stroke patients accompanied with dizziness at varied tilting angle controlled by tilting table with intelligent biosensor.

Full description

Stroke patients readily accompany with the occurrence of orthostatic hypotension. To earlier predict patients occurring dizziness during the tilt table test, this study utilized a self-developed integrated intelligent biosensor system to assist clinical staff efficiently and immediately assessing stroke patients with orthostatic hypotension. Further purposes were to survey the relationship between the orthostatic hypotension and heart rate variability (HRV) and find the predicted models of orthostatic hypotension.

Trial design

0 participants in 2 patient groups

Orthostatic hypotension

Description:

Collection of information of body mass index, modified Ashworth scale, maximal voluntary contraction(MVC), heart rate variability(HRV). Tilt table test was used in this study to identify if the subjects with or without orthostatic hypotension.

Non-orthostatic hypotension

Description:

Collection of information of body mass index, modified Ashworth scale, maximal voluntary contraction(MVC), heart rate variability(HRV) Tilt table test was used in this study to identify if the subjects with or without orthostatic hypotension.
