Post-acute sequelae of SARS-COV-2 (PASC) are emerging as a major health challenge. Orthostatic intolerance secondary to autonomic failure has been found in PASC patients. This study investigated the effect of COVID-19 after recovery on blood pressure (BP) during the orthostatic challenge. Thirty-one...
