Abstract
In two cases of hyperactive carotid sinus with syncope, both patients had a history of syncopal attacks. Carotid sinus massage produced asystole lasting for four seconds with recurrent symptoms. Permanent demand pacemakers were implanted in both patients, causing a relief of symptoms. (JAMA237:2320-2321, 1977)Keywords
