ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial, titled "Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Control in Healthy Subjects," is looking to understand how the body regulates blood flow and heart function in healthy individuals. The study will involve 30 participants who are between the ages of 18 and older. Researchers will record various bodily functions, such as heart rate and blood pressure, while subjects undergo a simple test where they change positions, like standing up from sitting. This will help scientists learn how the body manages blood flow to the brain and other areas during changes in posture.

To be eligible for this study, participants must be at least 18 years old, have a normal heart rhythm, and give their consent to join the trial. However, individuals with certain issues related to the autonomic nervous system, which controls involuntary body functions, will not be included. If you decide to participate, you can expect a straightforward process where your vital signs are monitored, helping researchers gather important information about how a healthy body functions.
