Abstract

Vasovagal syncopes (WS) are fainting fits whose manifestations are systemic vasodilation and bradycardia. The development of WS is frequently accompanied by short-term cardiac arrest. Recent data show that implantation of a cardiac pacemaker fails to prevent the development of fainting fits in these patients. On the basis of the pathogenesis of WS, the use of alpha-adrenomimetic midodrine is justifiable. The presented case demonstrates the successful use of the agent in the treatment of vasovagal syncope accompanied by asystole.
