syncope/吐き気

BACKGROUND Nausea is a common prodromal symptom of neurally mediated syncope, but the biological factors linking nausea with syncope have not been studied. We aimed to characterize nausea during tilt-induced syncope by exploring related changes in gastric myoelectrical activity and plasma

A 61-year-old female, having intractable hiccups, nausea, and syncope. Her systolic blood presure decreased by 30 mmHg on sitting position from supine position. Sinus arrest lasting more than three seconds were detected 52 times per day by 24 hour Holter electrocardiography. Brain MRI disclosed a

A 22-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital with persistent nausea and no apparent cause. There was no preceding infection. The patient lost consciousness for several seconds. Based on an electrocardiographic diagnosis of paroxysmal sinus arrest (PSA), a temporary pacemaker was implanted. She

A 67-year-old man with neurally mediated syncope (NMS) complicated by prostatic hypertrophy responded well to combined therapy with pirmenol and midodrine. In 2003, syncope occurred while the patient was driving a car. Results of head-up tilt-table testing (HUT) suggested a mixed type of NMS. Oral

We studied 94 consecutive patients (age 15 or over) to investigate which aspects of the history and clinical findings help to distinguish seizures from syncope and related conditions. Clonic movements or automatism observed by an eyewitness classified an event as a seizure. The seizure group

Convulsive syncopes may be particularly difficult to differentiate from epileptic seizures. Recurrent syncopes are caused by autonomic or non-autonomic failure. In this report, we present a 22-year-old woman who was misdiagnosed as epileptic and whose first symptoms during neurocardiogenic syncope

A 6-year-old boy presented with prolonged periods of unconsciousness (>60 min) following nausea and dizziness while standing. The application of EEG electrodes provoked a similar episode. These apparently long periods of unconsciousness could be explained by sleep. In view of the triggers (pain,

Objective: To study the clinical features of vasovagal syncope (VVS) and postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS) in children with neurological symptoms at disease onset. Methods: A retrospective analysis was performed on

A recent videometric analysis of 56 brief syncopes showed myoclonic activity in 90%, together with head turns, upward gaze, oral automatisms, righting movements and visual and auditory hallucinations in 60-80%. Characteristic precipitation factors, premonition features such as nausea, sweating and

Giant fibrovascular polyp of the esophagus is a rare but dramatic entity. These large polyps arise in the proximal esophagus and can cause airway obstruction secondary to mechanical pressure on the larynx, or they can present as a mass that is regurgitated into the oral cavity. We present a
