Neurocardiogenic Syncope is a common type of fainting that occurs when the body overreacts to certain triggers, such as stress, pain, or standing for long periods. This reaction causes a sudden drop in heart rate and blood pressure, leading to reduced blood flow to the brain, which results in a brief loss of consciousness.
The condition is often benign and can affect people of all ages, though it is more prevalent in adolescents and young adults. Treatment typically involves lifestyle changes, such as staying hydrated and avoiding triggers, and in some cases, medications may be prescribed to help manage symptoms.
