Article Summary

Abstract

Introduction

Approximately 60% of an adult human's body weight is water with 7%-8% is included in the blood volume.

Hydration is not only maintained by sufficient water intake but also the administration of sodium as sodium has a major effect on the body's use of water and can be depleted through diarrhoea, vomiting, polyuria, or excessive sweating.

Patients with autonomic nervous system disorders -- including neurogenic orthostatic hypotension (NOH), postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS), vasovagal syncope (VVS), and other disorders of orthostatic intolerance (OI) -- are often responsive to hydration

Symptoms can include lightheadedness, syncope, near syncope, brain fog, palpitations, chest pain, and dyspnoea which can have a major impact on daily function and quality of life

This review is intended to evaluate the different hydration modalities available and address some of the surrounding controversy

Pathophysiology

Orthostatic disorders have diverse pathophysiologies but they share the problem of ineffective blood circulation (especially to the brain) when upright.

Pressure receptors in the aortic arch and carotid arteries are connected to the nervous system by nerves fibres in the glossopharyngeal and vagus nerves which are in turn connected to the NTS and medulla oblongata in the brain stem.

On standing, the drop in arterial blood pressure causes the part of the medulla to signal to increase blood pressure by peripheral vasoconstriction and increased heart rate.

In NOH, there is a problem with either the signal betweeen the pressure receptors and the NTS or between the brain and the peripheral blood vessels which causes a decrease in blood pressure upon standing (see full text for specific features and causes).

In POTS, the heart rate increases upon standing but blood pressure does not change. Blood volume is often (but not always) reduced in POTS patients and is exaggerated by blood pooling. this causes the body to react by increasing the heart rate and keeping it high until lying down or increasing blood volume (see full text for specific features and causes). Correction of low blood volume is the most obvious treatment but other mechanisms may be relevant.

VVS is characterised by episodic OI due to a suddent change in the autonomic nervous system that causes a drop in blood pressure. This can be a symptom of a form of chronic OI (including POTS)

Hydration

Patients with orthostatic disorders must maintain hydration (orally, intravenously, or by some combination) to maximise blood volume.

Water alone is usually not enough to acheive adequate hydration as sodium and other electrolytes are necessary for fluid to remain in the intravascular space.

Oral hydration is typically more convenient but many patients have concurrent GI issues or other difficulties in acheiving adequate oral hydration. IV hydration is generally successful but poses logistical challenges and potential risks

Oral hydration: the standard treatment for diarrhoea is WHO oral rehydration solution (ORS) which has similarly been applied to orthostatic disorders

The osmopressor response: An exception to the principle that water without salt does not accomplish hydration is bolus water-drinking which, in patients with impaired baroreflex function induces a pressor response by activating the sympathetic nervous system. In healthy patients, bolus water-drinking has been shown to delay or prevent VVS and reduce the heart rate increase in POTS patients. This is a result of hypo-osmolality rather than intravascular volume expansion.

Oral hydration for NOH: Patients with NOH have a low sympathetic state. Salt supplementation for NOH has not been tested in randomised clinical trials but strung consensus-based guidelines have consistently recommended oral salt supplementation. Salt recommendations should be adjusted based on comorbidities and individual patients. It has not been researched whether salt supplementation should be adjusted for NOH patients with supine hypertension (about 50% of NOH patients).

Oral hydration for OI: Oral hydration with water and electrolytes is recommended to manage OI, including POTS, VVS and other forms of OI. Patients are encouraged to consume electrolyte peverages to keep fluids in the intravascular space to compensate for hypovolemia and orthostatic pooling. The amount recommended is higher than that for NOH. Various studies have tested the effects of hydration and salt intake.

Challenges of oral hydration: Oral hydration appears to be the ideal therapy to help improve orthostatic symptoms in NOH or POTS due to its simplicity and availability; however there are barriers to oral hydration in some patients. Approximately 69% of POTS patients have chronic, moderate to severe GI disorders (including concomitant gastroparesis, irritable bowel syndrome, recurrent vomiting, etc.) that may limit their ability to ingest fluids and salt. A small number have fastric or jejunal feeding tubs but still struggle with absorption. Patients with NOH may have issues with oral ingestion related to gastroparesis, other GI disorders, or lack of thirst. The ability to adequately hydrate these patients can be very limited. Older patients may also present with additional limitations.

Intravenous hydration

Many patients struggle to get adequate hydration orally. IV hydration with normal saline or lactated Ringer's solution is the easiest way to acutely increase intravascular volume.

In the case of orthostatic hypotension, the cause may be unclear. If there is a history of poor fluid intake, vomiting, diahrroea, or polyuria, and if the heart rate increases by more than 0.5 beats/min per mmHg of systolic blood pressure fall when standing, then IV fluids should be considered as long as there is no sign of congestive heart failure. Orthostatic blood pressure should then be reassessed.

No studies show benefit to ongoing IV hydration in the case of NOH

The goal of IV saline in POTS and other forms of OI is to correct hypovolaemia and bridge from incapacitation and deconditioning to the ability to engage in exercise and recovery. Table 1 outlines studies that support this.

Several studies of the use of IV fluids in POTS are summarised

When deciding which patients with chronic OI might benefit from IV saline infusions, it is of interest to know if postural tachycardia is a relevant criterion. Further studies are summarised.

Summary: Four noncontrolled observational studies agree in demonstrating improvement of orthostatic symtpoms in POTS and followup assessments also show significant improvement. Two noncontrolled observational studies of VVS showed IV saline averted presyncopal or syncopal episodes on a subsequent tilt-table test. These studies did not assess repeated infusions but one found that subsequent oral salt supplementation (with or without fludrocortisone) was associated with symptomatic improvement.

The question remains whether longterm salt supplementation or periodic intravenous saline infusions produces lasting improvement.

Comparison of oral versus intravenous hydration

Only one study directly compared IV and oral hydration with similar results (details in full text)

Complications of IV hydration

it may be difficult for patients to tracel to an IV infusion centre for periodic infusions and arranging home visits is expensive and complex.

For long-term vascular access, patients have the option of receiving a surgically implanted indwelling central venous catheter (PICC line, PAC, or TC); however, these are associated with serious risks for infection, sepsis, thrombosis, pulmonary embolism, or death. Exact numbers are detailed in the full text.

Improving volume status without salt

Additional treatments include compressive stockings, abdominal binders, and counterpressure manoeuvres which reduce venous pooling. Elevating the head of the bed at night will reduce nocturnal sodium diuresis (loss of sodium) in patients with supine hypertension.

A number of off-label pharmacologic strategies are also available for low blood volume.

Fludrocortisone increases renal absorption of sodium and water with some activity in the GI tract as well. It can cause hypokalemia (potassium deficiency). It's sodium-retaining effect is transient and the level of evidence for treating orthostatic hypotension is weak. See full text for more pros and cons related to fludrocortisone.

The other medication available to increase volume is desmopressin, a synthetic analogue of vassopressin. It works in the kidneys to reabsorb free water and is primarily indicated for enuresis (urinary incontinence). It can be beneficial to patients whose symptoms improve with vasoconstriction. A major adverse effect is hyponatremia (sodium deficiency) which can cause seizures and be life threatening. It also stimulates the release of von Willebrand factor which can result in thrombosis.

Vasopressor interventions such as midodrine, droxipa, and pyridostigmine are frequently used to treat NOH and POTS and have been reviewed in other studies.

Guidelines for IV hydration

The current evidence is not sufficient for strong recommendations regarding IV hydration in orthostatic disorders but a set og proposed guidelines for the management of difficult cases is presented in Table 2.

Before considering IV hydrations, a healthcare professional should establish an accurate diagnosis through a thorough history and examination. If the clinical diagnosis is unclear, autonomic testing can be helpful. Symptoms alone are not sufficient to diagnose autonomic disorders.

The most compelling context for an ongoing course of IV hydration is the patient who has severe and incapacitating symptoms of OI (consistently postural with objective and sustained evidence of orthostatic tachycardia) and is unable to attain adequate intravascular volume by oral hydration.

Evidence is less clear for cases of chronic OI without tachycardia or for chronic fatigue. Ideally IV hydration should based on objective markers of disease. If OI is severe and incapacitating, oral hydration is inadequate, and pharmacologic interventions are unsuccessful, the argument for IV hydration approaches the strength of that in the case of POTS.

For VVS, the vast majority of patients recover fully and are encouraged to use oral intake if fatigue persists. In the rare case of frequent syncope and the potential for injury, there are no clinical studies around the merit of IV hydration. Acute IV hydration was shown to delay syncope in two studies however it is unclear how well the conditions reflect real life.

There is no evidence to support ongoing IV hydration for NOH, however a single challenge of IV hydration may be used to assess whether an acute case of OH is neurogenic or caused by dehydration.

Before placing an IV access port, the patient should trial outpatient peripheral IV hydration. If the patient shows significant qualitative improvement in orthostatic symptoms, continued therapy can be considered with the expectation that IV hydration is intended to be a bridge to other therapy and not indefinite. It is crucial to explain the risks (Table 3) to the patient before proceeding.

Patients with IV ports should be carefully instructed on techniques and precautions to minimise infection risk as well as how to recognise symptoms associated with central venous thrombosis. Patients undergoing prologed IV hydration should have their electrolytes and blood pressure monitored regularly

Length of therapy depends on the patient's response to treatment but is not meant to be a long-term therapy.

Future directions

IV saline is a basic clinical response to patients with hypovolemia (which may include some patients with orthostatic disorders) but future therapies may emerge as research progresses -- despite their commonality, orthostatic disorders are not well understood.

Further and more precise studies into intravenous salt-loading, comorbidities, and subgroups should be done.

Tilt-table testing should be standardised for the assessment of OI and other diagnostic techniques should be studied.

Outcome assessments should include objective measures and patients receiving long-term IV saline infusions should be monitored for hypertension.

Rotational Atherectomy Treatment in Chennai

Understanding Rotational Atherectomy Treatment: A Comprehensive Overview

Rotational Atherectomy, also known as Rotablation, is a minimally invasive procedure designed to treat heavily calcified and narrowed coronary arteries. It utilizes a high-speed, diamond-coated burr to carefully shave away calcified plaque, clearing the artery and improving blood flow to the heart. Often combined with balloon angioplasty and stenting, this procedure is ideal for patients with complex coronary artery disease who are unsuitable for traditional angioplasty. In Chennai, the procedure is performed through a catheter inserted into the femoral artery, offering a vital treatment option for severe cases.

What is Rotational Atherectomy?

Rotational Atherectomy is an advanced intervention used to address severe coronary artery disease, particularly in patients with calcified plaques that cannot be treated effectively with conventional methods like balloon angioplasty or stenting. The procedure involves a rotating diamond-tipped burr that pulverizes hardened plaque into microscopic particles, which are safely washed away through the bloodstream.

Why is Rotational Atherectomy Needed?

Rotational Atherectomy is essential for patients suffering from complex coronary artery disease, particularly those with rigid, calcified plaques that impede blood flow. Traditional treatments like balloon angioplasty often fail to clear these calcifications, making Rotablation an effective solution. The buildup of fatty substances, cholesterol, and other materials leads to hardened plaque over time, restricting blood flow to the heart and potentially resulting in chest pain (angina) or even a heart attack.

Who Should Consider Rotational Atherectomy?

Rotational Atherectomy is best suited for patients with severe coronary artery disease who face challenges with traditional treatments. The procedure is especially effective when calcified plaques obstruct blood flow, and other options may not be sufficient. If you are dealing with severe blockages, especially in the coronary arteries, this procedure can offer a solution to restore proper blood flow.

Choosing the Right Doctor for Rotational Atherectomy

Dr. M. Kathiresan, a highly respected interventional cardiologist, is an expert in performing Rotational Atherectomy in Chennai. With years of experience in advanced heart care, he offers comprehensive treatment and ensures that patients receive the best care available. Dr. Kathiresan is known for his patient-centered approach and expertise in managing complex cases.

Diagnosis: How is Rotational Atherectomy Determined?

Diagnosing the need for Rotational Atherectomy is typically done through a combination of tests, such as:

Coronary Angiogram: To visualize blood vessels.

Intravascular Ultrasound (IVUS): For detailed artery imaging.

CT Angiogram: To assess arterial blockages.

Stress Test: To evaluate heart function under physical stress.

These diagnostic tests help doctors determine whether Rotational Atherectomy is appropriate and identify which vessels require treatment.

What to Expect During the Procedure?

The Rotational Atherectomy procedure typically lasts 1-2 hours and is performed under local anesthesia and mild sedation. It is done in a hospital or outpatient setting. A catheter is inserted into the femoral or radial artery and guided to the site of the blockage. A rotating diamond burr is used to break up calcified plaque, with the debris safely washed away through the bloodstream. The procedure is monitored closely for any complications, and once complete, the catheter is removed, and the incision is closed. Most patients recover within a few days.

Key Steps of the Rotational Atherectomy Procedure:

Local Anesthesia: Anesthesia is administered at the insertion site (typically the femoral or radial artery).

Guidewire Insertion: A guidewire is threaded to the blocked artery, allowing the device to reach the plaque.

Rotational Atherectomy: A rotating burr grinds and modifies the calcified plaque, turning it into small particles.

Plaque Removal: The particles are flushed out via the bloodstream.

Success Rate of Rotational Atherectomy

The success rate of Rotational Atherectomy varies, but in skilled hands, it is highly effective in improving blood flow to the heart. The procedure enhances the chances of successful follow-up interventions like balloon angioplasty and stenting, leading to better long-term outcomes.

Benefits of Rotational Atherectomy:

Enhanced Treatment for Complex Cases: It is particularly beneficial for patients with complex coronary artery disease and calcified plaques.

Improved Long-Term Outcomes: Patients typically experience reduced chest pain, enhanced exercise tolerance, and overall improved quality of life.

Minimally Invasive: The procedure involves smaller incisions and reduced recovery time compared to open-heart surgery, making it suitable for high-risk patients.

Advanced Technology and Expertise: Chennai offers cutting-edge cardiac care with skilled professionals and state-of-the-art facilities for optimal outcomes.

Risks of Rotational Atherectomy:

While the procedure is generally safe, potential risks include:

Infection or bleeding

Damage to blood vessels or surrounding tissue

Heart attack or stroke during or after the procedure

Arrhythmias or irregular heartbeats

Allergic reactions to contrast dyes or medications

Cost of Rotational Atherectomy in Chennai

The cost of Rotational Atherectomy in Chennai can vary based on factors like hospital choice, procedure complexity, and the patient's needs. Leading hospitals with advanced cardiac care facilities may charge higher fees. However, the long-term benefits, such as reduced need for repeat procedures, make Rotablation a cost-effective option. Many health insurance plans cover the procedure, and financial assistance programs are available in some hospitals.

Rotational vs. Orbital Atherectomy: Choosing the Best Option

When considering atherectomy, it’s important to understand the differences between Rotational Atherectomy and Orbital Atherectomy:

Rotational Atherectomy: Uses a high-speed rotating burr to remove plaque and is particularly effective for calcified lesions.

Orbital Atherectomy: Uses an orbital motion to modify plaque, ideal for concentric lesions.

Both procedures are available at top cardiovascular centers in Chennai. Your cardiologist will help you determine which option is best suited to your condition.

Conclusion:

Rotational Atherectomy is a vital treatment for patients with severe coronary artery calcification, especially when traditional treatments are ineffective. Dr. Kathiresan's expertise, combined with advanced technology and precise diagnostic tools, ensures optimal treatment planning and execution.  For more details : https://drkathiresan.com/treatments/robotic-minimal-access-bypass-surgery-in-chennai
