Abstract

Abstract Body

An individualized management of autonomic disorders requires a careful preliminary assessment not only of the type and severity degree of autonomic failure, but also of the patient’s preferences, therapeutic expectations and other disease-related aspects, such as the presence of motor or cognitive impairment. Non-pharmacological and pharmacological options are to be introduced in a stepwise fashion based on the symptomatic burden in single patients. Any interventional measure also requires a close follow-up to monitor for the therapeutic outcome, compliance and eventual side effects.
