Cardiovascular Autonomic Dysfunction Is the Most Common Cause of Syncope in Paced Patients by Ekrem Yasa, Ekrem Yasa, Fabrizio Ricci, Fabrizio Ricci, Fabrizio Ricci, Hannes Holm, Hannes Holm, Torbjörn Persson, Olle Melander, Olle Melander, Richard Sutton, Richard Sutton, Artur Fedorowski, Artur Fedorowski, Viktor Hamrefors, Viktor Hamrefors

“…We, thus, aimed to determine the etiology of syncope and/or symptoms of orthostatic intolerance in paced patients.Methods: Among 1,705 patients with unexplained syncope and/or orthostatic intolerance that were investigated by cardiovascular autonomic tests, including Valsalva maneuver, active standing, carotid sinus massage, and tilt-testing, 39 patients (2.3%; age 65.6 years; 39% women) had a cardiac implantable electronic device (CIED). We explored past medical history, diagnoses found during cardiovascular autonomic tests, and the further clinical workup, in case of negative initial evaluation.Results: An etiology was identified during cardiovascular autonomic tests in 36 of the 39 patients. …”
