Scientists scan brains to unravel the mystery of POTS 'Brain Fog'
NCT ID NCT04137757
Summary
This study aims to understand why people with Postural Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS) experience 'brain fog'—difficulty with thinking and memory. Researchers will use MRI brain scans to compare brain activity in 21 people with POTS to healthy volunteers while they do thinking tests. The goal is to see if the brain works harder in POTS patients, especially when they experience the physical stress of standing up.
