- Abstract
- Orthostatic dizziness occurs when a person feels dizzy or lightheaded upon standing up. Hemodynamic orthostatic dizziness can result from autonomic dysfunction, such as orthostatic hypotension or postural tachycardia syndrome. The International Classification of Vestibular Disorders has established diagnostic criteria for hemodynamic orthostatic dizziness/vertigo. These criteria help clinicians understand the terminology associated with orthostatic dizziness/vertigo and differentiate it from dizziness caused by global brain hypoperfusion and other etiologies. Effective treatment involves interpreting the results of autonomic function tests, which can lead to improvements in orthostatic dizziness and help prevent falls related to this condition. This paper discusses general management strategies and specific treatments for orthostatic hypotension and postural tachycardia syndrome, highlighting the importance of tailored care based on the most recent clinical insights.
