tilt-table test

Explanation:
Fra medicinordbogen.dk: "Each subject underwent a three-stage upright tilt-table test"
Fra Mayo Clinic: "A tilt table test is used to evaluate the cause of unexplained fainting (syncope). During a tilt table test, you lie on a table that moves from a horizontal to a vertical position. Your heart rate and blood pressure are monitored throughout the tilt table test."
