Cross-spectral analysis of cardiovascular parameters whilst supine may identify subjects with poor orthostatic tolerance.
An easy and low-cost method for identification of subjects prone to orthostatic vasovagal syncope would be of clinical benefit. An orthostatic test with 60 degrees head-up tilt and progressive lower-body negative pressure was performed on 79 patients with histories of unexplained syncope and 26 control subjects. The test was stopped at the onset of presyncope and time to presyncope was taken as...
متن کاملModeling and Control of Human Postural Sway
INTRODUCTION For quiet standing, the ankle strategy is used for the control of human posture in which the body moves as a rigid mass around the ankle joints. In its simplest form, the body is regarded as a single-link inverted pendulum with movement at the ankle joint controlled by the human postural control system. In patients with neurological impairment, this function might be restored by fu...

متن کاملPostural Control in Bipolar Disorder: Increased Sway Area and Decreased Dynamical Complexity
Structural, neurochemical, and functional abnormalities have been identified in the brains of individuals with bipolar disorder, including in key brain structures implicated in postural control, i.e. the cerebellum, brainstem, and basal ganglia. Given these findings, we tested the hypothesis that postural control deficits are present in individuals with bipolar disorder. Sixteen participants wi...
