First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Aug 13, 2026 · Updated 5 times
Summary
This study tests whether a wearable Holter monitor can detect early signs of fainting in people with orthostatic hypotension or reflex syncope. Forty adults who have already had a tilt-table test will wear the monitor for up to 21 days. The goal is to see if the device can pick up changes in blood pressure and heart rate that happen before a fainting episode.
