6 Number of consecutive beats: “Sustained >>> Nonsustained > PVCs”
Kusumoto, ECG Interpretation: from Pathophysiology to Clinical Application 2009

7 Rate: “Slow = Less scary”
Kusumoto, ECG Interpretation: from Pathophysiology to Clinical Application 2009

8 Coupling Interval: “Shorter = scarier” (“R on T”)

9 Coupling interval “Longer = less scarier”

37 Probability of Survival
Prognosis of Syncope: Framingham 5 10 15 20 25 0.0 0.2 0.4 0.6 0.8 1.0 Follow-up (yr) Probability of Survival No syncope Vasovagal and other causes Unknown cause Neurologic cause Cardiac cause Figure 2. Overall Survival of Participants with Syncope, According to Cause, and Participants without Syncope. P<0.001 for the comparison between participants with and those without syncope. The category “Vasovagal and other causes” includes vasovagal, orthostatic, medication-induced, and other, infrequent causes of syncope. The only difference between syncope and sudden cardiac death is that in syncope, you wake up. Anonymous Recently, the Framingham Heart Study provided an update regarding the incidence, specific causes, and prognosis of transient loss of consciousness episodes. Of 7814 study participants followed for an average of 17 years, 822 reported ‘syncope’. The incidence of a first report of syncope was 6.2 per 1000 person-years. The most frequently identified causes were vasovagal (21%), cardiac (9.5%), and orthostatic (9.4%); for 37% the cause was unknown. The participants with syncope from any cause, as compared with those who did not have syncope, had 1.31 increased risk for death from any cause, 1.27 for myocardial infarction or death from coronary heart disease, and 1.06 for fatal or nonfatal stroke. Persons with cardiac syncope were at increased risk for death from any cause (hazard ratio of 2.1) and cardiovascular events (hazard ratio of 2.66), and persons with syncope of unknown cause and neurologic syncope were at increased risk for death of 1.32 and 1.54 respectively. There was no increased risk of cardiovascular morbidity or mortality associated with vasovagal (including orthostatic and medication-related) syncope. Patients with cardiac causes for syncope have a significantly increased mortality risk. Over 30% of adults will have an episode of syncope during their lifetime.
