title: The management of unexplained collapse in service age personnel.
abstract: Unexplained collapse is a common presentation to medical practitioners, with a wide range of differential diagnoses making assessment problematic. Without a methodical approach to the patient presenting with unexplained collapse, potentially life-threatening conditions may not be recognised, whilst benign presentations can be over-investigated. This article will review the assessment, differential diagnosis and management of unexplained collapse, whilst considering the impact in the military environment.
