Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome: Health Services
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what steps his Department is taking to improve clinical pathways for people diagnosed with postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome.
Answered by Ashley Dalton
In England, it is the responsibility of local integrated care boards to work with clinicians, service users and patient groups, to develop services and care pathways that are convenient and meet the needs of patients with postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome.
NICE has published a clinical knowledge summary on the clinical management of blackouts and syncope, that provides advice for clinicians in the UK on best practice in the assessment and diagnosis of postural tachycardia syndrome.
