This case series describes the peri-partum management of neurocardiogenic syncope in pregnant patients.
Answers are grounded in this paper and cite their sources.
Case reports offer anecdotal peri-partum insights in neurocardiogenic syncope; hypothesis-generating and should not change practice.
We report two patients who presented to our obstetric unit with a diagnosis of neurocardiogenic syncope. The first patient presented to the obstetricians in the second trimester having had two episodes of syncope during her pregnancy. The second patient had a pacemaker fitted prior to conceiving. We present the peri-partum management of both these patients.
