Improved Patient Outcomes By Normalizing Sympathovagal Balance: Differentiating Syncope—Precise Subtype Differentiation Leads To Improved Outcomes
Abstract Syncope is difficult to definitively diagnose, even with tilt-table testing and beat-to-beat blood pressure measurements, the gold-standard. Both are qualitative, subjective assessments. There are subtypes of syncope associated with autonomic conditions for which tilt-table testing is not useful. Heart rate variability analyses also include too much ambiguity. Three subtypes of syncope are differentiated: vasovagal […]
