Can ambulatory blood pressure biomarkers predict future falls amongst older people? Open
Background While ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) biomarkers can predict cardiovascular and cerebrovascular outcomes, little work to date has examined their link with falls. The objective of this study was to examine association…

Cerebral Oxygenation Responses to Standing in Young Patients with Vasovagal Syncope Open
Vasovagal syncope (VVS) is common in young adults and is attributed to cerebral hypoperfusion. However, during active stand (AS) testing, only peripheral and not cerebral hemodynamic responses are measured. We sought to determine whether c…

Association between hypotension during 24 h ambulatory blood pressure monitoring and reflex syncope: the SynABPM 1 study Open
Aims Diagnostic criteria for ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) in patients with suspected reflex syncope are lacking. The study hypothesis was that patients with reflex syncope have a higher prevalence of systolic blood pressure …

Increased multimorbidity is associated with impaired cerebral and peripheral hemodynamic stabilization during active standing Open
Background Age‐related morbidities and frailty are associated with impaired blood pressure (BP) and heart rate (HR) recovery after standing. Here we investigate how multimorbidity affects cerebral and peripheral hemodynamics during standin…

298 Falls and Syncope in Older People in the Emergency Department: Prevalence, Clinical Characteristics and Outcomes Open
Background Falls, syncope and presyncope comprise a large proportion of emergency department (ED) presentations among older people, however accurate data detailing this is limited. The aim of this study therefore was to ascertain the perce…

304 ED-FASU: A Novel ‘Front Door’ Multidisciplinary Service Assessing Patients with Falls and Syncope in the Emergency Department Open
Background Patients with falls/syncope/presyncope frequently present to the emergency department (ED) and many that could be managed safely in an ambulatory care setting are admitted for extensive diagnostic work-up. A pilot intervention c…

Long-term cardiac monitoring in older adults with unexplained falls and syncope Open
Aims Unexplained falls account for 20% of falls in older cohorts. The role of the implantable loop recorder (ILR) in the detection of arrhythmias in patients with unexplained falls is unknown. We aimed to examine the diagnostic utility of …

Syncope causes transient focal neurological symptoms Open
One in 20 patients with syncope/pre-syncope have co-extant FN, which during 24-month follow-up, does not progress to a persistent deficit (>24 h). Awareness of co-occurrence of FN and syncope is important as stroke misdiagnosis results in …
