Prognosis

Prognosis of syncope depends on:

• Underlying causes: Syncope caused by cardiovascular diseases may be life-threatening. Prognosis of vasovagal syncope is relatively better.
• Whether the patient is associated with severe complications, such as falling, can lead to a cerebral hemorrhage.
