Malignant vasovagal reflex syndrome can be induced by pulling of cardiac tissue during percutaneous transcatheter closure of patent foramen ovale. In this case, a patient presented with a malignant vasovagal reflex syndrome characterized by decreased heart rate, cardiac arrest, and ventricular tachycardia. Therefore, it's particularly important to observe patients' heart rate and timely deal with vasovagal reflex syndrome during the operation.

Background: Cardioneuroablation (CNA) treats reflex syncope by ablating ganglionated plexi (GPs) either confined to the right (RA) or left atrium (LA), or accessible from both. We assessed whether GP ablation in one atrium affects parasympathetic modulation in the other and how ablation sequence (RA then LA, or vice-versa) impacts efficacy.
Methods: Two propensity-matched groups of patients with reflex syncope or functional bradycardia were analyzed.

Background And Objectives: Dizziness is a frequent complaint encountered in neurology clinics. Dizziness can be spontaneous or triggered, which includes orthostatic dizziness. Orthostatic dizziness can be acute (reflex/vasovagal syncope), chronic (orthostatic hypotension (OH), or postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS).
