Blackout

Résumé fourni par la source

Abstract The approach to evaluating patients presenting with blackout is set out using an example case with questions for the reader as the case evolves. This includes salient points in history taking, physical examination, relevant investigations, and a brief discussion of management. Shorter clinical vignettes follow illustrating how other pathologies can present with the same symptom: blackout. Relevant guidelines and evidence are referenced. The chapter ends with a series of short answer and single best answer questions to support exam preparation.
