If the Health Savings Account (HSA) owner dies, the HSA becomes the property of the named beneficiary. If the spouse is the beneficiary, the HSA can continue and the surviving spouse is subject to income tax only on HSA distributions not used for qualified medical expenses.
Carotid sinus hypersensitivity (CSH) is an exaggerated response to carotid sinus baroreceptor stimulation. It results in dizziness or syncope from transient diminished cerebral perfusion. Although baroreceptor function usually diminishes with age, some people experience hypersensitive carotid baroreflexes.
â¢Different sensory receptors exhibit differing degrees of adaptation in response to an adequate stimulus. â¢Slowly adapting receptors continuously signal the intensity and the duration of the stimulus (tonic receptors): muscle spindles, Golgi tendon, receptors of the macula in the vestibular apparatus, pain receptors, baroreceptors of the arteries (longest measured time for complete adaptation, about 2 days), chemoreceptors of the carotid
