(a.) Of or pertaining to syncope; resembling syncope.
Example Sentences:
(1) Other risk factors that have been identified in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy include nonsustained ventricular tachycardia on ambulatory electrocardiogram, a strong family history of sudden death, and prior occurrence of syncope (or cardiac arrest).
(2) The decrease of left ventricle outflow gradient as well as of subjective complaints inclusively cerebral syncopes were remarkable.
(3) He was admitted with dyspnea on exertion, syncope, and severe cyanosis.
(4) Waiting for surgery the patient suffered a syncope that was diagnosed of embolic origin and the left atrial thrombus has disappeared.
(5) Of the 48 patients, 36 (75%) had symptoms--congestive heart failure in 24, angina in 19, and syncope in 7.
(6) A history of syncope associated with some event capable of stimulating the carotid sinus was also helpful in selecting patients for pacemaker treatment.
(7) The upright-tilting test was considered positive if syncope developed in association with hypotension or bradycardia, or both.
(8) It thus appears that paroxysmal, vagally mediated complete AV block should be seriously considered in patients with unexplained syncope.
(9) Orthostatic intolerance, with feeling sick, instability and sometimes syncope, is characteristically observed after the return to earth due to a remarkable fluid shift in the lower part of the body and an acute reduction in blood flow to the brain.
(10) The patient with recurrent malignant ventricular arrhythmias (ventricular fibrillation or ventricular tachycardia with syncope) presents a complex therapeutic problem.
(11) Syncope and sudden death occurs in certain purebred Pug dogs which have been found to have intermittent sinus pauses and paroxysmal second degree heart block on electrocardiographic (ECG) study.
(12) A diagnostic approach to syncope in head and neck cancer is proposed.
(13) Carotid sinus hypersensitivity (CSH) is a common cause of syncope, and permanent pacemarker is unequivocally indicated in such patients.
(14) The cause of brief syncopes is discovered in only two-thirds of the cases at most.
(15) TLS is an attractive clinical term, easy to remember, and with pathophysiologic relevance to the clinician confronting the patient with a history of syncope and whose EEG discloses temporal lobe paroxysmal activity.
(16) In another 38 patients with neither syncope nor an intraventricular conduction defect, the mean HV interval lengthened by 5.3 ms and in two cases by 20-25 ms.
(17) To determine if anodal excitation during bipolar stimulation facilitates the initiation of sustained monomorphic ventricular tachycardia, nonsustained polymorphic ventricular tachycardia, or repetitive ventricular responses, both bipolar and cathodal unipolar programmed ventricular stimulation with one to three extrastimuli delivered during ventricular pacing at two rates from the right ventricular apex were performed in 28 patients evaluated for spontaneous sustained ventricular tachycardia or ventricular fibrillation (11 patients), nonsustained tachycardia (eight patients), or syncope (nine patients).
(18) No correlation was established between HV interval and age, aortic valve gradient, left ventricular peak systolic pressure, syncope, and coronary artery disease.
(19) Pacing was required because of syncopal attacks in eight patients, three of whom had congestive heart failure or low cardiac output on physiologic studies.
(20) In this case, the metastatic tumor around the carotid sinus seemed to be related to the syncope and the hemodynamic collapse.
Syncope
Definition:
(n.) An elision or retrenchment of one or more letters or syllables from the middle of a word; as, ne'er for never, ev'ry for every.
(n.) Same as Syncopation.
(n.) A fainting, or swooning. See Fainting.
(n.) A pause or cessation; suspension.
