Syncope is a symptom, not a diagnosis. Often it's a symptom of a benign etiology but it can indicate a life-threatening condition. So how do we distinguish between the two? We dive into the complex topic of syncope with guest Matt Mendes. We discuss the importance of recognizing syncope, differentiating it from seizures, and identifying who are the high-risk patients and why. The episode covers the guiding principles syncope- a good history, physical exam findings, and the ECG. It also delves into common presentations, risk stratifying strategies, and real-world cases to equip EMS providers with the knowledge needed to manage syncope calls effectively. 00:00 Intro 01:07 Welcome to EMS Cast, host and guest introductions 04:51 Guiding Principles for Syncope Assessment 07:22 High-Risk Syncope Patients 09:14 Initial Approach to Syncope Patients 15:15 Syncope vs. Seizure 20:08 Physical Exam and EKG Importance 25:14 Identifying Arrhythmias in Syncope Patients 26:37 Understanding Wolf Parkinson White Disease 27:46 QT Prolongation and Its Implications 29:49 Left Ventricular Hypertrophy and Its Risks 31:28 Recognizing Brugada Pattern 32:02 Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Dysplasia 33:04 Bifascicular Block and Its Dangers 35:00 EKG Interpretation and Syncope Risk Stratification 39:53 Emergency Department Workups for Syncope 55:49 Case Studies and Memorable Syncope Calls
