EGSYS <3 — lower likelihood of cardiac syncope

EGSYS Score for Cardiac Syncope: 0 — EGSYS <3 — lower likelihood of cardiac syncope. Interpretation: EGSYS <3 — lower likelihood of cardiac syncope What to do: Below the ≥3 cardiac-syncope threshold in Del Rosso validation cohorts. Inputs: Abnormal ECG and/or heart disease (+3): false; Palpitations before syncope (+4): false; Syncope during effort (+3): false; Syncope in supine position (+2): false; Absence of autonomic prodromes (−1): false; Absence of predisposing/precipitating factors (−1): false Source: Del Rosso A et al. Clinical predictors of cardiac syncope at initial evaluation in patients referred urgently to a general hospital: the EGSYS score. Heart. DOI: 10.1136/hrt.2006.105515. PMID: 18519550. Scope: +3 abnormal ECG and/or heart disease, +4 palpitations before syncope, +3 syncope during effort, +2 syncope supine, −1 absence of autonomic prodromes, −1 absence of precipitating factors; score ≥3 suggests cardiac syncope.
