Ultrasound Guided Stellate Ganglion Block in Postural Tachycardia Syndrome (NCT06953661)
Ultrasound Guided Stellate Ganglion Block in Postural Tachycardia Syndrome: A Randomized Double Blind Sham Placebo-controlled Pilot Study
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
This single-center study aims to evaluate both immediate and long-term outcomes of stellate ganglion block (SGB) in a cohort of rigorously phenotyped patients with Postural Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS). By assessing the effects of SGB, this study seeks to determine its viability as an intervention for symptom control in POTS.
