MP-470544-006 PALPITATIONS, PRESYNCOPE/SYNCOPE, AND POSTURAL ORTHOSTATIC TACHYCARDIA SYNDROME IN HYPERMOBILE PATIENTS: A COMPARISON OF EHLERS-DANLOS SYNDROME TO HYPERMOBILITY SPECTRUM DISORDER

HeartRhythm

The latter is often attributable to postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS). Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS) and hypermobility spectrum disorder (HSD) are connective tissue disorders characterized by joint hypermobility and skin hyperelasticity. These patients often are symptomatic with palpitations, presyncope and/or syncope.
