简要总结
This is a prospective single-center randomized crossover control study that aims to evaluate the effects of non-invasive transcutaneous spinal cord stimulation in patients with known or suspected orthostatic hypotension.
详细描述
The hypothesis is that transcutaneous spinal cord stimulation at thoracic level may correct hypotensive episodes during tilt testing in subjects with blood pressure drops. Eligible patients will sign an informed consent form before the procedure. Non-invasive transcutaneous electrical stimulation of the spinal cord will be applied using modulated electrical impulses through external adhesive electrode patches connected to a neural stimulator device. The study protocol includes analysis of the following parameters: heart rate; 12-lead electrocardiogram; continuous beat-to-beat blood pressure recordings (measured noninvasively by plethysmography) before stimulation, during stimulation and after spinal cord stimulation. All registered data will be analyzed at the end of the procedure.

结局指标
主要结局
Systolic blood pressure drop correction
时间窗: 5-30 minutes following verticalization
It is suggested that spinal cord stimulation will correct systolic blood pressure drop during tilt testing. The effect is expected within 5-10 mmHg as a difference between minimum systolic blood pressure during stimulation and without stimulation (sham).
次要结局
- Diastolic blood pressure drop correction(5-30 minutes following verticalization)
