Successful treatment of patients with syncope depends on the accuracy of the diagnosis, because syncope is a symptom, not a disease; diagnosis of the cause for syncope therefore creates a blueprint for treatment. Most experienced practitioners can diagnose the cause of syncope for less than half of their patients.

Syncope is a common presenting symptom, and is often a challenging diagnostic dilemma because of its various underlying causes. A careful initial clinical assessment with directed investigations is crucial in arriving at a presumptive diagnosis. Prolonged cardiac monitoring technologies have improved diagnostic accuracy in the more difficult cases.

The isolated syncopal episode, most commonly a benign and self-limited event, may also represent serious neurologic or cardiologic disease. In evaluating patients with syncope, the clinician must differentiate the benign from the more serious etiology.

Syncope is quite common in older patients, with a 10% prevalence and a 33% 2-year recurrence rate. Syncope-associated morbidity is also common in older patients, ranging from loss of confidence or depressive symptoms due to fear of falling, to fractures and consequent disability and institutionalization.

Syncope is a syndrome consisting of a relatively short period of temporary and self-limited loss of consciousness caused by transient diminution of blood flow to the brain (most often the result of systemic hypotension). Syncope comprises part of a subset of clinical conditions in which loss of consciousness is transient. Other conditions in this group,

Syncope is defined as an acute, brief and transient loss of consciousness and postural tone with spontaneous and complete recovery. Neurovascular ultrasound has contributed to elucidate the underlying mechanism of different types of syncope. In routine diagnostic work-up of patients with syncope, however, neurovascular ultrasound is not among the first

Syncope is a clinical entity of diverse cause. The historical features surrounding the syncopal event and the presence or absence of heart disease are the most important features in establishing the cause for syncope. Passive head-up tilt study provides a means of identifying many patients with vasodepressor syncope.

Syncope is a prevalent syndrome with diverse causes, which have in common a sudden transient failure of the autonomic nervous system to maintain blood pressure against the force of gravity at a level sufficient for cerebral perfusion. Neurally mediated syncope is an episodic phenomenon in which autonomic nervous system function is normal the rest of ...

An unambiguous definition of syncope is important for care, research and teaching purposes. Unfortunately, many published definitions described 'syncope' as a broad category of transient loss of consciousness (TLOC) but still appeared to use a much narrower concept, creating confusion.

A subgroup of syncope patients report migraine headaches immediately preceding or following syncope, and some respond to anti-migrainous prophylactic agents. This study aimed to describe the frequency of migrainous features concurrent with episodes of syncope and to propose clinical criteria for assessing whether a migrainous mechanism might underlie ...
