Key result
The role of pacemaker therapy for vasovagal syncope remains controversial, particularly in young patients, and requires further multicenter randomized controlled trials to determine the best approach.

Remains controversial for pacing in vasovagal syncope, especially young patients; multicenter RCTs needed to clarify indications.
Does permanent cardiac pacing reduce syncope recurrence in patients with vasovagal syncope?
Permanent cardiac pacing may reduce syncope recurrence in highly selected older patients with asystolic VVS, but its role in younger patients and the optimal pacing algorithm require further investigation.
Masataka Sumiyoshi (2014) conducted a review in vasovagal syncope. permanent cardiac pacing was evaluated. The role of pacemaker therapy for vasovagal syncope remains controversial, particularly in young patients, and requires further multicenter randomized controlled trials to determine the best approach.
