摘要

Syncope is a common emergency of children and adolescents.The reoccurrence of syncope seriously affects children's physical and mental health.The pathogenesis,etiology,diagnosis and treatment of pediatric syncope differ from those in adults.Most pediatric syncope is relatively transient and benign in nature.But cardiac syncope,although the incidence is relatively low as compared with the neurally-mediated syncope (NMS),poses high risks of sudden death and needs to be quickly identified and managed.
