摘要
Neurocardiogenic syncope is the most common cause of syncope presenting in the outpatient setting. It is usually encountered among individuals without an underlying heart disease, but not uncommonly participates in the syncope mechanism of patients with an obstructive or an arrhythmic cardiac cause for syncope as well. The vasovagal event is caused by a transient profound hypotensive reaction most commonly associated with inappropriate bradycardia resulting from activation of a complex autonomic reflex. The pathophysiology of neurocardiogenic syncope has been elucidated by tilt table testing, a noninvasive and well-tolerated method for reproducing the event in susceptible individuals.
