Study Summary
Patients with POTS may not adequately expand their plasma volume in response to a high-sodium (Na+) diet. Mechanisms involved in the regulation of plasma volume, such as the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system and renal dopamine, may be impaired in POTS and may respond inappropriately to changes in dietary sodium.The purpose of this study is to determine (1) whether a high dietary sodium level appropriately expands plasma volume in POTS; (2) whether plasma renin activity and aldosterone are modified appropriately by changes in dietary sodium in POTS; and (3) whether patients with POTS have improvements in their orthostatic tachycardia and symptoms as a result of a high dietary sodium level.
