Abstract
A16-year-old female underwent tilt table testing, which resulted positive for reflex vasodepressive syncope. 12‑lead ECG during syncope showed T-wave inversion in infero-lateral leads, along with QTc interval increase >100 msec compared to baseline. These abnormalities rapidly disappeared in supine position with resumption of consciousness. Complete cardiac evaluation excluded heart disease. T-wave changes and moderate QTc prolongation are relatively common in young (mainly female) patients undergoing tilt table testing and they appear benign in nature. However, in a minority of cases, on the basis of the clinical context and after an accurate ECG analysis, further examinations may be warranted.
