Cardiovascular Autonomic Dysfunction Is the Most Common Cause of Syncope in Paced Patients

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2019
Introduction: Syncope and orthostatic intolerance in paced patients constitute a common clinical dilemma. We, thus, aimed to determine the etiology of syncope and/or symptoms of orthostatic intolerance in paced patients.Methods: Among 1,705 patients with

PFA Under Deep Sedation and Non‐Invasive Monitoring in Atrial Fibrillation Patients With Obstructive Sleep Apnea

open access: yesPacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Clinical data about pulsed field ablation (PFA) under deep sedation among patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) are limited, while the optimal periprocedural monitoring is not established. We report our experience in PFA among patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) and OSA, using a continuous non‐invasive respiratory and ...

Reflex Syncope With Complete Heart Block Triggered by Swallowing in a Patient on Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor Therapy

open access: yesPacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) are now standard of care for most advanced solid tumors. While effective, they are associated with immune‐related adverse events (irAEs), including rare autonomic complications. We present a patient with metastatic lung adenocarcinoma receiving nivolumab and ipilimumab who developed reflex syncope with ...

Vasovagal syncope related to pain procedures in a pain clinic at a tertiary Lebanese hospital between 2016 and 2019

open access: yesBMC Research Notes, 2021
Objectives Our study focuses on evaluating the factors associated with vasovagal syncope (VVS) when having a pain procedure at the pain clinic as well as showing variation in vital signs associated with fainting across different periods of the procedure (

Hemodynamic measurements for evaluating vasovagal syncope in the emergency department [PDF]

open access: yesClinical and Experimental Emergency Medicine, 2015
Syncope is a sudden and transient loss of consciousness and postural tone, with spontaneous recovery without medical intervention. It accounts for 1.0% to 1.5% of emergency department (ED) visits and up to 6% of hospital admissions. Vasovagal syncope may

Effect of repeated hot water immersion on cognitive performance, cerebrovascular function, sleep and biomarkers of neurodegeneration in older adults

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Ageing is associated with cognitive decline and increased risk of developing neurodegenerative disease. Repeated passive heating, using hot water immersion (HWI), may improve cognitive performance via improved cerebral oxygenation, but this is yet to be examined in older adults.

Machine Learning Model Using Heart Rate Variability for the Prediction of Vasovagal Syncope

open access: yesIEEE Access
Vasovagal syncope is a reversible condition that can cause serious events, such as cerebral hemorrhage. Predicting its occurrence is challenging; thus, this study aimed to develop machine learning models that use heart rate variability to predict the ...

Effect of repeated hot water immersion on muscle strength, power, function and physical activity in healthy older adults: A randomised crossover trial

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Ageing leads to an increased prevalence of sarcopenia and frailty, characterised by progressive declines in muscle strength, power and function and reduced physical activity. Hot water immersion (HWI) could potentially improve muscle function, but this is yet to be explored in older adults.

Structural heart disease as the cause of syncope

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2018
We described the clinical evolution of patients with structural heart disease presenting at the emergency room with syncope. Patients were stratified according to their syncope etiology and available scores for syncope prognostication.
