Understanding Neurogenic Orthostatic Hypotension (NOH) - PEP 2016 Animation

In this compelling visual narrative crafted by Ghost Medical Animation in partnership with The Patient Experience Project (PEP), we delve into the realm of Neurogenic Orthostatic Hypotension (NOH). Accompany us as we acquaint ourselves with Carl and his spouse Nancy, and delve into the impact of this condition on their daily routines.

Neurogenic Orthostatic Hypotension, frequently referred to as NOH, is a neurological disorder characterized by a notable drop in blood pressure upon standing. For Carl, navigating life with symptomatic NOH can entail experiencing sensations of dizziness and lightheadedness upon assuming an upright posture.

Witness the physiological variances between Nancy and Carl as they transition from a seated to a standing position. Observe how Nancy’s body adeptly adjusts to maintain her blood pressure equilibrium, contrasting with Carl’s nervous system which grapples with the release of adequate norepinephrine, resulting in persistently low blood pressure.

Should you or someone you know encounter symptoms such as dizziness, blurred vision, or lightheadedness upon standing, it’s prudent to seek guidance from a healthcare professional. Visit ohmatters.com to evaluate your symptoms and gain insights from individuals navigating life with NOH.
