Who should get HUTT Head Upright Tilt Test done in Indore?

Indore's renowned namkeen-and-sweets street-food culture, high in refined carbohydrate, sugar, and fried fat, combined with sedentary business and IT-sector work around Vijay Nagar and Palasia, drives high cholesterol and early cardiovascular risk. Regular cardiac testing is recommended for patients on statin therapy (to confirm LDL has reached the treatment target), post-cardiac event patients (to monitor secondary prevention), people with type 2 diabetes (which doubles cardiovascular risk), and anyone with persistently elevated blood pressure.

What conditions can HUTT Head Upright Tilt Test help diagnose?

It helps diagnose vasovagal syncope, orthostatic hypotension, and POTS. Abnormal results can stem from dehydration, medications, autonomic disorders, or heart rhythm problems. A family history of unexplained fainting may prompt earlier testing.
