title: Response to head-up tilt testing in patients with situational syncope.
abstract: The results of head-up tilt testing were compared between 24 patients with situational syncope and 44 age-matched patients with typical vasovagal syncope. Patients with situational syncope showed poor positive responses, especially in the passive tilt results (8.3% vs. 39%, p = 0.0078).
