Is there a place for tilt-table testing?
International Journal of Cardiology, 1995logical study discussed above, but with recurrent syncope thought clinically to be of cardiac origin, empirical pacing offers good relief of symptoms. These data were obtained before the advent of tilttable testing which has been shown to be useful in investigating syncope of unknown origin and may have clarified the diagnosis in some cases, although ...

OBJECTIVE Neurocardiogenic syncope (NCS) is the most common cause of syncope in children and adolescents. Neurocardiogenic syncope occurs secondary to cerebral hypotension because of bradycardia, hypotension, or both.

On moving from supine to erect posture there is a large gravitational shift of blood away from the chest to the distensible venous capacitance system below the diaphragm. This shift is estimated to total ½–1 L of thoracic blood with most of the volume shift occurring in the first 10 s of upright posture.

Tilt table testing in patients with suspected epilepsy
Acta Neurologica Scandinavica, 2008Approximately 20-30% of patients with epilepsy are misdiagnosed and syncope often seems to be the mistaken cause. We re-evaluated patients referred to an epilepsy clinic where suspicion of neurally mediated (reflex) syncope were raised using tilt table testing (HUT).HUT laboratory results and medical records of 120 consecutive patients were reviewed ...

Tilt table testing (TTT) was introduced about two decades ago for the evaluation of patients with unexplained syncope. Initially, it was welcome and spread enthusiastically through different medical specialties, but its use has decreased due to the recognition of several limitations when inappropriately employed.

Schellong test in orthostatic dysregulation: a comparison with tilt-table testing
Wiener klinische Wochenschrift, 2005To evaluate the role of the Schellong test (ST) in forms of orthostatic dysregulation in comparison with the tilt-table test (TT).67 young males (mean age 22 +/- 4 years) from the military service, representing two different cohorts, were examined by ST and TT, which served as gold standard.

Nitrate Stimulated Tilt Table Testing:
Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, 2003often expensive cardiac exam-inations were performed without resulting in aclear diagnosis. The more frequent use of the“passive” unmedicated tilt test also revealed itspractical limitations. Not only is the test timeconsuming, but also the sensitivity in unselectedpopulations appears not to be as high as originallydescribed.

Risk factors for syncope recurrence after a positive tilt-table test in patients with syncope.
Circulation, 1996BACKGROUND Recent work with head-up tilt-table testing has suggested that many patients with syncope may have recurrent neurally mediated episodes of bradycardia, hypotension, or both.

Atrioventricular Block During Upright Tilt Table Test
Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, 2004Patients with a cardioinhibitory response (asystole or atrioventricular block [AVB]) during upright tilt table test (UTT) constitute a therapeutic challenge. Our present knowledge is partial and in those who experience AVB is absent. Furthermore, we ignore if there is any difference between both groups, particularly pacemaker indication.
