Abstract:
Postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS) is a common condition that results in syncope among children and adolescents.It primarily manifests as a range of chronic orthostatic intolerance symptoms, accompanied by an abnormal increase in heart rate upon standing, significantly impacting the learning and quality of life in young individuals.POTS demonstrates diversity and heterogeneity in clinical symptoms, underlying pathophysiological mechanisms, and associated complications.Consequently, relying on experience to treatment often fails to achieve desired clinical outcomes.Delving deeper into potential clinical biomarkers capable of predicting POTS treatment efficacy and implementing individualized treatment approaches are crucial for enhancing patient prognosis and quality of life.This review provided a comprehensive exploration of the latest research findings on biomarkers for predicting POTS clinical outcomes, aiming to offer perspectives and approaches for the clinical treatment of pediatric POTS.
