Syncope resulting from autonomic insufficiency syndromes associated with orthostatic intolerance.
The disorders of autonomic control associated with orthostatic intolerance are a diverse group that can result in syncope and near-syncope. A basic understanding of these disorders is essential to diagnosis and proper treatment. Ongoing studies should help to define better the spectrum of these disorders and to elaborate better diagnostic and treatment modalities.
