Age-related tilt test responses in patients with suspected reflex syncope

ConclusionsAge significantly impacts the haemodynamic pattern of TT responses, starting from the age of 50. Conversely, TT phase —passive or TNG-potentiated—does not significantly influence the type of response, when age-adjusted. Vagal hyperactivity dominates in younger patients, older patients show tendency to vasodepression.
