I studien ingick 650 patienter, från 71 olika kliniker i elva länder, som alla drabbats av oförklarliga svimmningar, så kallade synkope, någon gång under livet. Samtliga patienter hade uppsökt i genomsnitt tre olika specialister för att få bukt på problemet och genomgått mellan 9 och 12 tester innan de fått veta att ingen diagnos kunde ställas.
Samtliga fick en hjärtmonitor implanterad och forskarna följde sedan patienten tills dess att de fick ett svimmningsanfall, och i vissa fall fortsatte de följa patienten ytterligare en tid efter anfallet.
Under studiens gång upplevde 218 patienter svimmningsanfall, varav 78 procent av dessa, 170 patienter, kunde diagnosticeras och få behandling.
Synkope innebär då personen plötsligt förlorar medvetandet, oftast på grund av att blodtrycket faller och att hjärnan inte får tillräkligt med syre. Orsakerna till synkope kan vara helt ofarliga, men vissa kan vara riktigt allvarliga, som exempelvis onormal hjärtrytm.
