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.
