Résumé
Syncope is characterized by sudden and short-term loss of postural tone and consciousness. Vasovagal syncope (VVS) episode is usually self-limiting, and it may affect patients' quality of life. In this study, we aimed to investigate the relationship between quality of life, Beck-depression and Beck-anxiety scales and clinical characteristics of the VVS patients. The present study included 88 patients with VVS. Tilt table test was performed to all the patients. Patients filled out the Quality of life, Beck-depression, and Beck-anxiety scale forms. Demographics, medical history, echocardiography, blood pressures, electrocardiography and physical examination findings were recorded. There was a significant and negative correlation between the total syncope episodes (TSE) and EQ-5D index and EQ-5D-VAS index, respectively (p<0.001, r: -0.649; p<0.001, r: -0.587). TSE was significantly and positively correlated with the Beck-anxiety scale and Beck-depression scale. EQ-5D index, EQ-5D-VAS index, Beck-depression scale, and Beck-anxiety scales were defined as an independent predictor of TSE in VVS patients. Psychological factors play an essential role in VVS patients. EQ-5D index, EQ-5D-VAS index, Beck-depression, and Beck-anxiety scales were an independent predictor of the TSE in patients with VVS.
