These may include orthostatic intolerance and autonomic dysfunction, and postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome has been described to occur in a proportion of patients with PASC.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Case summary<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>In this report, we present a 32-year-old pregnant woman (G3P2) who experiences severe orthostatic symptoms as part of her PASC syndrome, which is decoupled from normal physiologic changes of pregnancy. At 25 weeks of gestation, she was evaluated for increasing episodes of dyspnoea, marked tachycardia with minimal exertion, intermittent non-exertional chest pain, and presyncope. This patient had a moderate course of COVID-19 at 12 weeks of gestation, for which she received monoclonal antibody therapy (casirivimab\/imdevimab). The patient then had complete resolution of COVID-19 symptoms and felt well for 1 month prior to developing orthostatic symptoms at 25 weeks of gestation. Evaluation with a NASA Lean Test revealed marked orthostatic tachycardia, as well as delayed orthostatic hypotension. Given her COVID-19 illness 4 months prior, PASC involving autonomic dysfunction was diagnosed.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Discussion<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>Patients with orthostatic symptoms in PASC should be carefully evaluated with dedicated active stand tests, such as the NASA Lean Test, to characterize the autonomic response to standing. In pregnant patients, an understanding of normal pregnancy physiology is crucial to correctly identify abnormal findings in such tests.<\/jats:p>\n
