Syncope Due to Idiopathic Paroxysmal Atrioventricular Block
Open accessAbstract
Objectives We present data on patients with syncope due to paroxysmal atrioventricular (AV) block unexplainable in terms of currently known mechanisms.Background Paroxysmal AV block is known to be due to intrinsic AV conduction disease or to heightened vagal tone.Methods We evaluated 18 patients presenting with unexplained syncope who had: 1) normal baseline standard electrocardiogram (ECG); 2) absence of structural heart disease; and 3) documentation, by means of prolonged ECG monitoring at the time of syncopal relapse, of paroxysmal third-degree AV block with abrupt onset and absence of other rhythm disturbances before or during the block.Results The study group consisted of 9 men and 9 women, mean age 55 ± 19 years, who had recurrent unexplained syncope for 8 ± 7 years and were subsequently followed up for as long as 14 years (4 ± 4 years on average). The patients had no structural heart disease, standard ECG was normal, and electrophysiological study was negative. In all patients, prolonged ECG monitoring documented paroxysmal complete AV block with 1 or multiple consecutive pauses (mean longest pause: 9 ± 7 s at the time of syncope); AV block occurred without P-P cycle lengthening or PR interval prolongation. During the observation time, no patient had permanent AV block; on permanent cardiac pacing, no patient had further syncopal recurrences.Conclusions Common clinical and electrophysiological features define a distinct form of syncope due to idiopathic paroxysmal AV block characterized by a long history of recurrent syncope, absence of progression to persistent forms of AV block, and efficacy of cardiac pacing therapy.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
