TLDR
This patient benefi tted from implantation of an ICD for ventricular fi brillation secondary to refl ex syncope, usually considered benign.Abstract:
A 62-year-old man with cured lymphoma as only signifi cant medical history experienced a fi rst refl ex syncope after prolonged orthostatic posture, with cardiac arrest. Prolonged asystole was foll...read more

Management of outflow tract ventricular arrhythmias.
TL;DR: New findings have shed new light on the basic and clinical electrophysiology of the outflow tract, which may enhance the management of patients with benign outflows tract ventricular arrhythmia and solve the complex relationships between outflow tractor ventriculararrhythmias and sudden death.

TL;DR: An unusual case of seemingly typical reflex syncope is presented, in the form of defecation syncope, in a patient who had a pacemaker in situ and it is shown that typical triggers for the syncope are reassuring and implies a benign prognosis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cardiac arrest during recovery after tilt-induced vasodepressor syncope in a 76-year old man
TL;DR: This case illustrates cardiac arrest due to prolonged vasovagal reflex.

Transient asystole associated with vasovagal reflex in an oral surgery patient: A case report
TL;DR: In this article , the authors describe the management of intravenous sedation for a dental phobic patient who experienced the vasovagal reflex involved in an unexpected transient asystole.

Autonomic and electrocardiographic changes in cardioinhibitory syncope.
TL;DR: Syncope was preceded by marked accentuation of sympathetic tone with a sudden shift in heart rate control to vagal dominance and was accompanied by vagally induced, benign arrhythmia in the majority of the patients.
Journal Article
Evaluation and management of syncope.
TL;DR: The history and physical examination still provide the best basis for the initial evaluation of syncope and point the way for specific testing.

TL;DR: A 25-year-old woman experienced three episodes of syncope over the course of 2 years, one of which occurred just after she had sat down, and two were accompanied by convulsions.
Journal Article
[Arrhythmia after a positive head-up tilt table test].
TL;DR: The common types of arrhythmia were sinus bradycardia, junctional escape rhythm and sinus arrest after a positive HUTT, which occurred mostly simultaneously with the manifestation of syncope or pre-syncope and blood pressure reduction, while arrhythmia appeared later in SNHUT.

Syncope in patients with right ventricle outflow tract premature beats and no apparent structural cardiopathy.
Ana Cristina Ludovice,Denise Hachul,Francisco Darrieux,Silvana Cardoso Bastos,Eduardo Sosa,Mauricio Scanavacca +5 more
TL;DR: The prevalence of neurocardiogenic syncope in patients with idiopathic RVOT premature beats is high and patients with recurrent, unexplained syncope and idiopATHic VE must be kept under investigation.
