Filter by:The main purpose of this study is to assess the reliability of a new cuffless patch BP monitor in detecting episodes of hypotensive (pre)syncope during tilt testing.
The main purpose of this study is to assess the reliability of a new patient's self-administered wearable watch-type BP monitor in detecting episodes of hypotensive (pre)syncope. Secondary aim regards the estimation of feasibility of this tool.
About 20% of adults faint recurrently. These patients are often highly symptomatic, have problems with employment and driving, can be injured, and have poor quality of life. There are few therapies that have withstood the test of randomized clinical trials. the investigators will conduct a prospective, randomized, parallel, double-blind, proof-of-concept study that tests the hypothesis that serotonin 5HT3 receptor inhibition with ondansetron prevents tilt-induced vasovagal syncope (VVS) and pre-syncope in patients with clinical VVS. A total of 70 patients with quantitative clinical diagnostic criteria for VVS and at least 1 syncopal spell in the preceding year will be randomized in a double-blind acute phase 2 study to ondansetron 8 mg PO BID x 2 doses or matching placebo. The endpoint will be presyncope or syncope associated with diagnostic hemodynamic changes. These data should provide useful preliminary data as a foundation on which to conduct a subsequent randomized clinical trial.
Multicenter Italian interventional "proof of efficacy" clinical trial that aims to evaluate the incidence of asystolic pauses and heart rate in patients with CNS who performed severe CNA identified through asystolic pauses identification by implantable loop recorder. The study is independent, "investigator-initiated," sponsored by a nonprofit scientific association called the Italian Multidisciplinary Group for the Study of Syncope (GIMSI).
SynABPM 2 proof-of-efficacy is a retrospective, multicentre, observational study performed in patients affected by hypotensive reflex syncope who had performed two ABPMs, one before and another after any therapeutical intervention aimed to increase arterial blood pressure
Identifying the mechanism of non-cardiac syncope is the essential prerequisite for an effective personalized therapy. Aim of this multicentre, prospective, cross-sectional, observational study is to assess effectiveness and diagnostic yield of a two-step standardized assessment which consists of 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) and of tilt-table Short Cardiovascular Autonomic Function Battery (SCAFB) which consists in carotid sinus massage (CSM), limited to patients ≥40-year-old, standing test, and head-up tilt test (HUT) performed one after the other in an uninterrupted sequence as a single procedure on a tilt table
The present study aims to: 1. Estimate the prevalence of Postural Tachycardia Syndrome and vasovagal syncope among adults patients attend the Internal Medicine Clinic and ICU in period from 11/2022 to 10/2023 2. Detect of causes and the relationship between POTS and vasovagal syncope and serum electrolytes, and serum cortisol.
The investigators are interested in whether discrete counterpressure maneuvers, or muscle movements in the lower body, will boost blood pressure and cardiovascular control in children who faint. We will record cardiovascular responses to maneuvers of exaggerated sway, leg crossing, crouching, and gluteal muscle tensing in children who faint (N=20), as well as their height, weight, muscularity, and pubertal (Tanner) stage. Autonomic cardiovascular control will be measured using a Valsalva manoeuvre (expiration against a closed airway for 20 seconds) and a supine-stand test. The primary outcomes are noninvasive measures of cardiovascular responses to the maneuvers (blood pressure, cerebral blood flow, and stroke volume (volume of blood pumped per heartbeat). Comparisons will be made across levels of sex, diagnosis, Tanner stage, muscularity, height, and degree of autonomic control.
The primary purpose of this investigation is to determine whether water carbonation can improve orthostatic tolerance in healthy control volunteers. Orthostatic tolerance refers to the ability to maintain an adequate blood pressure when standing. In some individuals blood pressure can fall when standing, predisposing to dizzy spells or fainting episodes. Drinking water can boost blood pressure and making fainting episodes less likely. However, it is not clear whether the carbonation of the water has any further impact on the blood pressure response. This is important because it may be that carbonated water expands the stomach (gastric distension), provoking an increase in sympathetic activity. The increase in sympathetic nervous system activity boosts blood pressure. Resolving this question would have important implications for patients with syncope. This study will test whether carbonated water will have any further impact on blood pressure than the already known effect of non-carbonated water.
This study is a prospective, single-center randomized controlled clinical trial. patients with refractory vasovagal syncope were randomly divided into two groups according to the proportion of 1:1. Group A: simple left atrial ganglion plexus ablation (RAGP + LSGP + LLGP + LIGP + RIGP ablation); B group: left atrial ganglion plexus combined with right atrial ganglion plexus ablation (group A + consolidation ablation of RAGP at the junction of right atrial septum and superior vena cava). To clarify the role of RAGP in cardiac autonomic nervous system and the effect of ablation, to establish the standard stragtegy of cardiac nerve ablation.
