Vasovagal syncope (VVS) is a clinically common neurally mediated syncope. The relationship between different hemodynamic types of VVS and clinical syncopal symptoms has not been reported. The purpose ...
The hemodynamic type of pediatric VVS is closely related to the syncopal symptoms....
• There are varying probabilities of syncopal episodes in different hemodynamic types of VVS, and there is a lack of research to assess the comparative risk of syncope in children with different hemod...
• The probability in presence of syncopal symptoms varies greatly between different hemodynamic types of VVS. • VVS-CI and VVS-M had a 203% and 175% increased risk in presence of syncopal symptoms com...
Various scores have been derived for the assessment of syncope patients in the emergency department (ED)....
We aimed to compare the effectiveness of Canadian Syncope Risk Scores (CSRS), San Francisco Syncope Rules (SFSR), and Osservatorio Epidemiologico sulla Sincope nel Lazio (OESIL) risk scores in predict...
We performed a prospective, observational case series study of adults (≥ 18 years) with unexplained syncope/near-syncope who presented to ED. Demographic characteristics of the patients and clinical a...
A total of 421 patients (mean age 50.9 ± 20.8, 51.5% male) were enrolled. The rate of MACE development in the 30-day follow-up of the patients was 12.8% (n = 54). While 20.2% (n = 85) of the patients ...
The CSRS may be used as a safety risk score for a 30-day risk of MACE and mortality after discharge from the emergency department....
The diagnosis of vasovagal syncope (VVS) is mainly based on history-taking and physical examination. However, brain Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and Electroencephalogram (EEG) are commonly used in...
Patients with a diagnosis of VVS from 2017 to 2022 were included. Several demographic and syncope features were recorded. The association of these was assessed with undergoing MRI, EEG, and either MRI...
A total of 1882 patients with VVS were analyzed, among which 810 underwent MRI (43.04%), 985 underwent EEG (52.34%), and 1166 underwent MRI or EEG (61.96%). Head trauma (OR 1.38, 95% CI 1.06 to 1.80),...
Based on our findings, performing MRI or EEG was common among VVS patients while it is not indicated in the majority of cases. This should be taken into consideration to prevent inappropriate MRI/EEG ...
Syncope is a short-term transient loss of consciousness, characterized by rapid onset and complete spontaneous recovery. According to the 2018 European Society of Cardiology guidelines, three differen...
This paper aims to improve the diagnosis of syncope and transient loss of consciousness (TLOC) in children. Diagnostic problems stem, first, from some causes spanning various disciplines, e.g. cardiol...
Lyme disease is one of the most common vector-borne illnesses in the United States. It is caused by Borrelia burgdorferi infection transmitted via the Ixodes tick. Rarely, it can progress to early dis...
A 41-year-old previously healthy man presented to the emergency department (ED) by ambulance after an episode of syncope. Electrocardiogram revealed right bundle branch block with borderline first-deg...
Treatment efficacy of reflex syncope is mainly related to the mechanism underlying syncope rather than its etiology or clinical presentation. The predominant mechanism underlying reflex syncope can be...
Methodology and diagnostic criteria of the most useful tests for the identification of hypotensive and bradycardic phenotypes are discussed. Diagnostic tests for the hypotensive phenotype include offi...
In reflex syncope, the documentation of bradycardia/asystole during a syncopal episode does not rule out the possibility that a preceding or parallel hypotensive reflex plays an important role. Simila...
Investigation of syncope involves the use of electrophysiological study, particularly in patients with cardiac conduction disorder. There is conflicting evidence about the role of electrophysiological...
The objective of this study was to evaluate the electrophysiological study findings in patients with Chagas disease and bundle branch block and/or divisional block presenting with syncope....
This is a retrospective study of patients with Chagas disease and cardiac conduction disorder who underwent electrophysiological study from 2017 to 2021 for the investigation of syncope in a tertiary ...
A total of 45 patients (60.2±11.29 years, 57.8% males) were included. The mean HV interval was 58.37 ms±10.68; 22.2% of the studied population presented an HV interval of ≥70 ms; and malignant ventric...
More than half of the patients with Chagas disease, syncope, and cardiac conduction disorder have inducible malignant ventricular arrhythmias. Prolonged HV interval was observed in only 20% of populat...
Reflex syncope in the UK Armed Forces is reportedly higher than comparable militaries and civilian populations and is significantly more common in soldiers who take part in State Ceremonial and Public...
A retrospective cohort study was performed in 200 soldiers who perform SCPD. A questionnaire was undertaken reviewing soldiers' medical history and circumstances of any fainting episodes. A consented ...
In the syncope group orthostasis (61%) and heat (35%) were the most common precipitating factors. The most common interventions used by soldiers were to maintain hydration (59%) and purposeful movemen...
This is the first study, in the British Army, to describe, categorise and establish potential risk factors for reflex syncope. Orthostatic-mediated reflex syncope is the most common cause in soldiers ...
Methemoglobinemia represents an uncommon but potentially serious cause of presentation to the emergency department, resulting in hypoxemia and even death. The symptoms and clinical findings in this co...
A 23-year-old male with a history of asthma presents to the emergency department for an episode of syncope after inhalation of amyl nitrite "poppers". He had normal vitals other than tachycardia but w...
Emergency physicians should familiarize themselves with the classic physical exam findings in methemoglobinemia in order to identify and treat this condition promptly. While this patient had a good ou...
