DOI: 10.1007/s10354-020-00798-3
Abstract: BACKGROUND Syncope in childhood and adolescence is frequent and in most cases benign. A thorough history taking, complete physical examination, electrocardiography and further diagnostic work-up as indicated should rule out possible cardiac syncope. OBJECTIVE To evaluate whether… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10840-019-00531-0
Abstract: PurposeA proportion of patients with vasovagal syncope (VVS) experience recurrence despite appropriate management. Closed loop stimulation (CLS) pacing is a promising treatment for a subgroup of patients with cardioinhibitory response on head-up tilt table test… read more here.

Cardioinhibitory syncope: from pathophysiology to treatment—should we think on cardioneuroablation?

DOI: 10.1007/s10840-020-00758-2
Abstract: Vasovagal syncope (VVS) is the most common type of syncope; the lone cardioinhibitory syncope represents only a small group of patients; however, the “cardioinhibitory component” is highly prevalent in reflex syncope and can be severe… read more here.
