Inflatable belt could help patients stand without fainting

NCT ID NCT03482297

Summary

This study is testing a new inflatable belt worn around the abdomen to see if it safely helps people with autonomic failure stand up without getting dizzy or fainting. Researchers will compare the real belt to a 'sham' belt with very low pressure in about 31 participants. The goal is to see if the belt improves how long people can stand and reduces their symptoms of low blood pressure when upright.
