Summary

In the present study the investigators evaluate the sensitivity and specificity of passive tilt test in athletes, as well as their haemodynamic responses and autonomic nervous system activity during head-up tilt. Moreover, the investigators try to apply a novel algorithm for the improvement of diagnostic yield of tilt test in athletes.

Conditions

  • Syncope

Interventions

OTHER

Passive tilt test

Passive tilt test (without pharmacological provocation). After a horizontal supine rest period of 5 min, the tilt table was inclined at 60° head-up position for 30 min. A positive response was defined according to the European Society of Cardiology guidelines for the diagnosis and management of syncope
