A vasovagal syncope, although benign and characterized by a favorable prognosis, might become dangerous if occurs during driving or in a work setting intrinsically hazardous. In addition, some working activities, such as those requiring a prolonged orthostatic posture or a warm environment, may act ...
Vasovagal Syncope During Driving: Assessment Using Risk of Harm Formula and Post-1 and Post-2 StudiesMitral stenosisStrokeSurgeryHeart failure constitutes an important medical, social and economic problem. The prevalence of heart failure is estimated as 2-3% of the adult population and increases with...
Vasovagal syncope can be triggered by having your blood drawn or an emotionally upsetting event. Medications and/or certain exercises can help people manage fainting spells related to vasovagal syncope, but the most important thing is learning your triggers and trying to avoid them. If you have f...

Vasovagal Syncope, commonly known as fainting, occurs when the body overreacts to certain triggers, such as stress or pain, leading to a sudden drop in heart rate and blood pressure. This condition can be alarming, but natural remedies can help manage its symptoms and prevent occurrences....

No patient had syncope or injury during driving. In conclusion, syncope and injury while driving in patients with neurocardiogenic syncope is rare. The precise mechanism of this is unclear but may be related to posture during driving. Consensus among the medical community will be needed to ...
Vasovagal syncope is the most common cause of syncope, but its risk for driving remains uncertain. We analyzed the clinical characteristics of patients who had syncope during driving and subsequently underwent the head-up tilt test (HUTT). Of the 245 consecutive patients undergoing HUTT, 23 (9%...
Vasovagal syncope (VVS) is common in young adults and is attributed to cerebral hypoperfusion. However, during active stand (AS) testing, only peripheral and not cerebral hemodynamic responses are measured. We sought to determine whether cerebral oxygena
This study sets the grounds for future investigations to understand the role of cerebral regulation during standing in VVS.
