OBJECTIVE: To determine whether single chamber ventricular demand (VVI) pacing is adequate for elderly patients with carotid sinus syndrome. DESIGN: Prospective double blind randomised cross over study. SETTING: Tertiary referral centre. PATIENTS: 30

Patients with established reproducible cardioinhibitory carotid sinus hypersensitivity were studied to define the dose of atropine required to abolish the heart rate slowing in response to carotid sinus massage, the heart rate response to the Valsalv

The purpose of the study was to define heart rate and blood pressure responses to supine and upright carotid sinus massage in healthy elderly subjects and thus to establish the validity of current diagnostic criteria for carotid sinus syndrome in thi

Sixty-five consecutive elderly patients (mean age 78 years) referred to a 'syncope' clinic over a six-month period were prospectively studied. Initial evaluation included ambulatory electrocardiography, carotid sinus massage before and after atropine

Background: the potential impact on morbidity, mortality and health care economics makes it important to identify patients at risk of fracture, in particular fractured neck of femur (FNOF). Older patients with carotid sinus hypersensitivity (CSH) are

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate tolerance of fludrocortisone in older patients with hypotensive disorders. DESIGN: Prospective case series. SETTING: Syncope clinic. PATIENTS: 64 Consecutive patients over 65 years (mean age 80 years) with one or more hypotensi

Prolonged head-up tilt is increasingly used as a diagnostic test for vasovagal syncope. Its sensitivity is reported to increase with the concurrent administration of intravenous isoprenaline. False-positive responses are common in young controls part

purpose: Carotid sinus syndrome (CSS) is frequently overlooked as a cause of syncope in the elderly. It is diagnosed when carotid sinus massage (CSM) produces asystole exceeding 3 seconds (cardioinhibitory CSS), a reduction in systolic blood pressure
