A 59-year-old man was seen in the Cardiology Clinic with a long history of recurrent syncope. These episodes would occur predictably during sexual intercourse at the point of ejaculation. He experienced prodromal symptoms including lightheadedness followed by syncope for approximately 10 s, with gradual recovery.

Epidemiology of Vasovagal Syncope
2014Vasovagal syncope is a common symptom, but its true incidence is difficult to estimate because only a small percentage of patients with syncope seek medical advice. The estimated prevalence varies according to the setting and the population studied, but it is likely that up to 40 % of people faint at least once in their life and prevalence is higher in

Dental Update, 2006
We report the case of a 21-year-old male whose frequent episodes of loss of consciousness in the dental surgery culminated in the postponement of treatment, pending further investigation. The patient was referred to a cardiologist and submitted to head-up tilt testing, which evoked prolonged asystole, associated with loss of consciousness and mild ...

For the high presence of retrograde amnesia in the elderly, it is often difficult to collect an exhaustive description of the ...

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, 2005AbstractVasovagal syncope (VSS) is an exaggerated tendency towards the common faint caused by a sudden and profound hypotension with or without bradycardia. The etiology of VVS is unknown though several lines of evidence indicate central and peripheral abnormalities of sympathetic function.

Syncope is common in pediatric population, carrying a significant health and psychological impact. The incidence of syncope in the pediatric age that requires medical intervention is estimated at 125 of 100,000 subjects (0.125%). An incidence peak occurs around the age of 15 years, with females having more than twice the incidence of males.

Hemodynamic Mechanism of Vasovagal Syncope.
Japanese Heart Journal, 1996Vasovagal syncope is a common clinical problem, however the hemodynamic mechanism is not clearly understood. The aim of the present study was to investigate the circulatory control mechanism of vasovagal syncope provoked by the head-up tilt test. Thirty two patients with recurrent unexplained syncope were studied using a head-up (60 degrees) tilt test.
