Physiological phenomenology of neurally-mediated syncope with management implications. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
BACKGROUND: Due to lack of efficacy in recent trials, current guidelines for the treatment of neurally-mediated (vasovagal) syncope do not promote cardiac pacemaker implantation.

Evaluation of Syncope: An Overview [PDF]

open access: yesIndian Pacing and Electrophysiology Journal, 2001
Syncope is defined as a sudden temporary loss of consciousness associated with a loss of postural tone, with spontaneous recovery that does not require electrical or chemical cardioversion. Syncope is a common symptom, accounting for 1% to 6% of hospital

Clinical controversy: methodology and indications of cardioneuroablation for reflex syncope

open access: yesEuropace, 2023
Graphical Abstract Graphical Abstract Observational studies and a recent randomized controlled trial have provided some evidence that cardioneuroablation (CNA) may prevent syncope recurrence in patients affected by cardioinhibitory reflex syncope during ...

ICD Outcome in Pediatric Cardiomyopathies

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease, 2022
Background: Pediatric patients with cardiomyopathies are at risk of malignant arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death (SCD). An ICD may prevent SCD. The aim of this study was to evaluate ICD implantation outcomes, and to compare transvenous and subcutaneous

Association between hypotension during 24 h ambulatory blood pressure monitoring and reflex syncope: the SynABPM 1 study

open access: yesEuropean Heart Journal, 2022
Aims Diagnostic criteria for ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) in patients with suspected reflex syncope are lacking. The study hypothesis was that patients with reflex syncope have a higher prevalence of systolic blood pressure (SBP) drops on ...

Arrhythmogenic Cardiomyopathy: Diagnosis, Evolution, Risk Stratification and Pediatric Population—Where Are We?

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease, 2022
Arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy (ACM) is a cardiomyopathy characterized by the occurrence of a high risk of life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death even at presentation.

When Should Premature Ventricular Contractions Be Considered as a Red Flag in Children with Cardiomyopathy?

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease, 2021
Premature ventricular contractions (PVCs) are common and generally benign in childhood and tend to resolve spontaneously in most cases. When PVCs occur frequently, an arrhythmia-induced cardiomyopathy may be present requiring medical or catheter ablation.
