A Community-Based Trial of Commercially Available Compression Tights in Patients With Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome
Background
Compression garments reduce heart rate and symptoms in patients with postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome in an acute laboratory setting. Patients taking medications controlling heart rate have less benefit from compression than those not on medications. The effectiveness of commercially available garments in a community-based setting, with and without medication use, is not known.
Objectives
The authors sought to evaluate commercially available compression tights in a community-based setting both with, and without, medications modulating heart rate, using a clinical trial with 2 before–after protocols conducted in a randomized crossover fashion.
Methods
Participants (N = 26) held medications during protocol #1 and took medications as normal during protocol #2. For each, participants completed 4, 10-minute active stand tests in the morning (AM) and afternoon (PM) with the garments on (ON) and off (OFF) (AM-OFF, AM-ON, PM-ON, and PM-OFF). Heart rate (Holter monitor) and symptoms (Vanderbilt Orthostatic Symptom Score [VOSS]) were measured for each standing test.
Results
Protocol #1: Standing heart rate was reduced (105 [99-116] beats/min vs 119 [105-130] beats/min; P < 0.001) and symptoms improved (P < 0.001), during AM-ON vs AM-OFF. Standing heart rate (P = 0.04) and symptoms (P = 0.004) increased when compression was removed after several hours. Protocol #2: Standing heart rate was reduced (84 [77-90] beats/min vs 89 [84-100] beats/min; P < 0.001), and symptoms improved (P = 0.03), during AM-ON vs AM-OFF. Standing heart rate (P = 0.02) and symptoms (P < 0.001) increased when compression was removed after several hours.
Conclusions
Commercially available compression tights reduced heart rate and symptoms both acutely and after several hours of use. This additional benefit persisted whether concomitant medications were used. (Compression Garments in the Community With POTS [COM-COM-POTS]; NCT04881318)
期刊介绍:
JACC: Clinical Electrophysiology is one of a family of specialist journals launched by the renowned Journal of the American College of Cardiology (JACC). It encompasses all aspects of the epidemiology, pathogenesis, diagnosis and treatment of cardiac arrhythmias. Submissions of original research and state-of-the-art reviews from cardiology, cardiovascular surgery, neurology, outcomes research, and related fields are encouraged. Experimental and preclinical work that directly relates to diagnostic or therapeutic interventions are also encouraged. In general, case reports will not be considered for publication.
