Abstract

Recurrent syncope is a common clinical problem and a significant diagnosis and therapeutic challenge. Head-up tilt testing is commonly used in the evaluation of patients with vasovagal syncope. Analysis of the type of reaction leading to event is a base to the therapeutic method. Documented symptomatic bradycardia or asystole during head-up tilt testing is an indication to dual-chamber pacemaker implantation.
