Diagnostic value of the head-up tilt test and the R-test in patients with syncope

Heart International, 2006
The diagnostic value of the head-up tilt test (HUTT) in discovering vasovagal syndrome depends on the pre-test probability. An accurate anamnesis and clinical examination screens the patients indicated for the HUTT.

Head-up tilt test with clomipramine challenge in vasovagal syndrome—a new tilt testing protocol [PDF]

European Heart Journal, 2003
The aim of the study was to randomly compare clomipramine, used as a challenge-agent during head-up tilt test, with isoproterenol, used in the conventional test, in patients with vasovagal syndrome.The serotonergic re-uptake inhibitor clomipramine was infused (5mg in 5min) at the start of head-up tilt test (Clom-HUT) in 126 patients (mean age 41+/-16 ...

Age and the head-up tilt test outcome in syncope patients

Research in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2015
Background: The head-up tilt test (HUTT) is a useful diagnostic tool for syncope. Objectives: We sought to investigate the outcome of the HUTT in syncope patients and identify the relationship between age and different hemodynamic outcomes.

Methodology of head-up tilt testing in patients with unexplained syncope

Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 1991
Prolonged 60 degree head-up tilt has been shown to be valuable in the investigation of unexplained syncope, diagnosing neurally mediated bradycardia/hypotension or malignant vasovagal syndrome. To evaluate the methodology of tilt testing, the following were examined: reproducibility of results, tilt duration, angle of tilt, method of tilt support and ...

Characteristics of head‐up tilt testing with additional adenosine compared with head‐up tilt testing with isoproterenol and isosorbide dinitrate [PDF]

Journal of Arrhythmia, 2014
AbstractBackgroundHead‐up tilt (HUT) testing is used to establish the diagnosis of neurally mediated syncope (NMS). Adenosine administration during HUT testing is useful for inducing NMS. However, no comparison between adenosine HUT testing and HUT testing using other drugs has been reported.
