A Successful Treatment of Ganglionated Plexus Ablation for Vagally Mediated Sleep‐Related Advanced Atrioventricular Block

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT We report a case of a 41‐year‐old man with recurrent nocturnal ventricular asystole secondary to advanced atrioventricular (AV) block, which was successfully treated with ganglionated plexus (GP) ablation based on the presumption of excessive vagal tone. This approach may offer a potential alternative for vagally mediated nocturnal AV block in

Coexistence Of Postural Tachycardia Syndrome And Vasovagal Syncope In The Same Patient.

The American Journal of Medical Sciences and Pharmaceutical Research, 2020
Postural tachycardia syndrome (PoTS) and vasovagal syncope (VVS) are two prevalent dysautonomic forms of orthostatic intolerance that are linked respectively to a sympathetic hyperactivity and a vagal hyperactivity, but yet, both forms may coexist in the same patient. The mechanism of this association is not well known and the number of published cases

Management of sleep apnoea syndrome (SAS) in patients with vasovagal syncope (VVS): a protocol for the VVS-SAS cohort study

BMJ Open, 2020
Introduction Recurrent vasovagal syncope (VVS) is associated with decreased quality-of-life and frequent use of emergency services. The evidence base for causality, diagnostic procedures and potential VVS treatments is poor. Scattered observations in the

Time-frequency analysis of the ECG in the diagnosis of vasovagal syndrome in older people

The 26th Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society, 2005
The Smoothed Pseudo Wigner-Ville Distribution (SPWVD) is used for the time-frequency analysis of variations in RR interval. A novel technique to determine the smoothing window lengths is implemented, and a new heart rate variability (HRV) metric is developed, instantaneous center frequency variability (ICFV), which uses the time-frequency map generated

Physician Perspectives on the Initial Diagnostic Strategy of Syncope in Older Patients Without Diagnostic Clues

Annals of Noninvasive Electrocardiology, Volume 31, Issue 2, March 2026.
Physicians value timeliness and accuracy in choosing implantable cardiac monitoring (ICM) or tilt table testing (TTT) to investigate syncope in older patients without clues or heart disease. Europeans preferred 75% while North Americans preferred ICM 85%. 61% expressed concerns about missed diagnoses with TTT and only 19% for ICM.
