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.

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 the commonest identified cause of transient loss of consciousness, being ten times more frequent than epilepsy. It is a consequence of cerebral underperfusion due to reduced cardiac output, often related to reduced venous return due to decreased peripheral vascular resistance, with pooling of blood volume in dependent body parts....

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.

ABSTRACT Purpose of Review: 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.

Cardiology Clinics, 2013 The diagnostic process in patients with syncope is not always easy and includes a detailed clinical history, physical examination and baseline electrocardiogram; according to the results of these initial approaches, some additional tests must be performed.

Syncope results from sudden, transient, global cerebral hypoperfusion. Neurally mediated syncope, orthostatic hypotension, arrhythmic and cardiac syncope, and steal syndromes are the main pathophysiological forms of syncope. This chapter focuses on the treatment of neurally mediated syncope and orthostatic syncope, since other forms of syncope are ...

Syncope is a sudden transient loss of consciousness associated with loss of postural tone, caused by bradycardia, tachycardia, or abnormal autonomic reflexes. Pacing and implantable defibrillators treat but do not cure arrhythmias. Reflex syncope has remained a therapeutic challenge.
