Abstract
Postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS) is a complex clinical syndrome predominantly affecting females during puberty and early adulthood. The exact cause of POTS is unknown; however, patients often endure a myriad of symptoms including lightheadedness, palpitations, weakness, and fatigue, which significantly impact their quality of life and academic performance. Additional psychological effects include anxiety and depression which is common among POTS patients, further emphasizing the need for comprehensive care and adequate school accommodations. Despite its considerable impact, there remains a paucity of research and standardized guidelines, underscoring the need for increased awareness and collaborative efforts among healthcare providers, educators, and policymakers. Further research and international collaboration are imperative to the successful development of standardized treatment and accommodations for this vulnerable population.
