Pacing Therapies for Vasovagal Syncope

Journal of Atrial Fibrillation, 2020
Vasovagal Syncope (VVS) is mediated by a cardiac autonomic reflex with resultant bradycardia and hypotension, precipitating syncope. While benign and mostly well controlled, recurrent VVS can be debilitating and warrants intervention. Non-pharmacological management of VVS have had variable success.

Vasovagal oscillations and vasovagal responses produced by the Vestibulo-Sympathetic Reflex in the rat

Frontiers in Neurology, 2014
Sinusoidal galvanic vestibular stimulation (sGVS) induces oscillations in blood pressure (BP) and heart rate (HR) i.e., vasovagal oscillations, and decreases in BP and HR i.e., vasovagal responses, in isoflurane-anesthetized rats.

Onsite vasovagal reactions with and without loss of consciousness are distinct outcomes with different risk factors

Vox Sanguinis, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Objectives Vasovagal reactions (VVRs) are some of the most common adverse reactions (ARs) in blood donors. While researchers have tried to develop precise risk prediction tools, these studies have all combined onsite and offsite reactions as well as reactions with and without the loss of consciousness.
