摘要：
Syncope is a common symptom, experienced by 15% of persons less than 18 years old and up to 23% of elderly nursing home residents, so it is important to consider optimizing strategies for the management of these patients. The strategy selected will inevitably differ from place to place. However, an organized structure offers more cost-effective care. This article discusses possible health care delivery models for syncope management and reviews the current status of the organization of syncope care, to show the value of a multidisciplinary approach to the organized management of patients with syncope.
