Postural tachycardia syndrome (POTS) is a form of orthostatic intolerance, the development of symptoms that come on when standing up from a reclining position, and that may be relieved by sitting or lying back down. The primary symptom of an orthostatic intolerance is lightheadedness, fainting and an uncomfortable, rapid increase in heartbeat (tachycardia), a common response to a rapid drop in blood pressure as mediated by baroreceptors in the carotid bulb and aortic arch. There are several inconstant secondary symptoms. A syndrome is simply a constellation of symptoms, not all of which may be present in all cases, and as is the case in POTS, a syndrome may also have a wide variety of underlying causes. A subset of POTS patients suffer from a low blood volume. Would you predict that this particular subset of patients has elevated or suppressed plasma levels of renin and aldosterone? Explain your answer. The nuance of dysregulation of the RAA axis is complex in these patients,…
Dr. Susan Rice asks Bruce Goldman, CMA (AAMA), to instruct patient Dottie Tate in the use of a walker to prevent further falls at home. Dottie is silent as Dr. Rice leaves the examination room and Bruce proceeds to set the walker correctly. However, when Dottie sees that Bruce must once again put Dottie in a gait belt for her protection—the belt was used earlier in the examination to assess Dottie’s ability to ambulate—the patient gets feisty. She is visibly tired and ready to go home. “I’ll learn to use the walker if I have to, but I won’t wear that belt. It makes me feel like a baby. And it’s such a bother. Who wants to go through all that? We just don’t need it.” Question 1-3 1.
