Outline
Lesson Objective for Syncope (Fainting)
- Understanding Syncope:
- Gain a comprehensive understanding of syncope, including its definition, causes, and contributing factors, to provide effective nursing care.
- Risk Assessment and Identification:
- Develop skills in assessing the risk of syncope in individuals, recognizing predisposing factors, and identifying patients at higher risk for fainting episodes.
- Intervention Strategies:
- Learn intervention strategies to manage and prevent syncope episodes, including immediate response during an episode and long-term measures to reduce the risk of recurrence.
- Patient Education:
- Acquire knowledge on educating patients about syncope, its potential causes, and lifestyle modifications to prevent fainting episodes. Enhance communication skills to effectively convey information to patients and their families.
- Collaboration and Communication:
- Develop collaborative skills to work effectively with other healthcare professionals, such as physicians, cardiologists, and neurologists, to ensure a multidisciplinary approach in the assessment and management of syncope.
Pathophysiology of Syncope
- Impaired Cerebral Perfusion:
- Syncope is characterized by a transient and temporary loss of consciousness resulting from inadequate blood flow to the brain. This can occur due to reduced cardiac output or vasodilation leading to decreased cerebral perfusion.
- Neurological Dysfunction:
- Dysfunction in the autonomic nervous system, particularly inadequate activation of the sympathetic nervous system, can contribute to a sudden drop in blood pressure (hypotension) and heart rate, leading to syncope.
- Orthostatic Changes:
- Syncope may be associated with orthostatic changes, where there is a failure of the body to adjust appropriately to changes in position (e.g., standing up quickly). This can result in pooling of blood in the lower extremities, reducing venous return to the heart.
- Vasovagal Response:
- The vasovagal response, also known as neurocardiogenic syncope, involves a sudden and exaggerated response of the vagus nerve, leading to bradycardia (slow heart rate) and vasodilation, ultimately causing a temporary loss of consciousness.
- Cardiac Arrhythmias:
- Certain cardiac arrhythmias, such as bradyarrhythmias (e.g., bradycardia) or tachyarrhythmias (e.g., ventricular tachycardia), can disrupt the normal electrical signaling of the heart, resulting in inadequate blood flow to the brain and syncope.
Etiology of Syncope
- Orthostatic Hypotension:
- A sudden drop in blood pressure upon standing, often due to dehydration, medications, or autonomic dysfunction, can lead to syncope.
- Vasovagal Syncope:
- Triggers such as emotional stress, pain, or the sight of blood can stimulate the vagus nerve, causing a sudden drop in heart rate and blood pressure, leading to syncope.
- Cardiac Causes:
- Structural heart issues, valvular heart disease, arrhythmias, or other cardiac abnormalities can result in syncope by disrupting normal cardiac function.
- Neurological Causes:
- Neurological conditions such as seizures or transient ischemic attacks (TIAs) can lead to syncope episodes.
- Hyperventilation and Hypoxia:
- Hyperventilation, often due to anxiety or respiratory issues, can cause a decrease in carbon dioxide levels, leading to cerebral vasoconstriction and syncope. Hypoxia (low oxygen levels) can also contribute to fainting episodes.
Desired Outcome for Syncope
- Prevention of Recurrent Episodes:
- Minimize or eliminate syncope episodes through comprehensive assessment, identification of triggers, and implementation of preventive measures.
- Improved Quality of Life:
- Enhance the patient’s overall quality of life by addressing and managing contributing factors, reducing the impact of syncope on daily activities and well-being.
- Optimized Cardiac Function:
- Ensure optimal cardiac function and rhythm through appropriate interventions and collaboration with healthcare providers, aiming to prevent syncope related to cardiac causes.
- Enhanced Patient Education:
- Provide education to the patient and their family regarding syncope, its potential triggers, and lifestyle modifications to prevent future episodes, empowering them to actively participate in their care.
- Safety Measures Implemented:
- Implement safety measures to minimize injury risk during syncopal episodes, including education on proper positioning and awareness of warning signs to take preventive actions.

Nursing Assessment for Syncope
- Detailed Patient History:
- Obtain a thorough medical history, including any previous episodes of syncope, associated symptoms, triggers, medications, and relevant family history.
- Cardiovascular Assessment:
- Assess cardiovascular status, including blood pressure, heart rate, and rhythm. Evaluate for signs of structural heart disease or arrhythmias that may contribute to syncope.
- Neurological Assessment:
- Conduct a neurological assessment to identify any signs of neurological dysfunction or conditions that may contribute to syncope.
- Orthostatic Blood Pressure Monitoring:
- Perform orthostatic blood pressure monitoring to identify orthostatic hypotension as a potential cause of syncope.
- Medication Review:
- Review the patient’s current medications, as certain medications may contribute to syncope. Adjustments or changes in medications may be necessary.
- Psychosocial Assessment:
- Assess psychosocial factors, including stressors and emotional triggers, to identify potential vasovagal responses leading to syncope.
- Trigger Identification:
- Work collaboratively with the patient to identify specific triggers or situations that precede syncope episodes, aiding in preventive strategies.
- Patient Education:
- Educate the patient about syncope, its potential causes, and preventive measures. Emphasize the importance of recognizing warning signs and seeking prompt medical attention.
Implementation for Syncope
- Lifestyle Modification:
- Collaborate with the patient to implement lifestyle modifications, including adequate hydration, avoiding triggers, and incorporating measures to prevent orthostatic hypotension (e.g., rising slowly from a seated position).
- Medication Management:
- Work with healthcare providers to optimize medications, adjusting doses or discontinuing drugs that may contribute to syncope. Ensure the patient understands their medication regimen.
- Cardiac Monitoring:
- Implement continuous cardiac monitoring or prescribe ambulatory monitoring devices to capture any cardiac arrhythmias that may contribute to syncope. Ensure timely reporting and intervention for any abnormalities.
- Patient Education:
- Provide comprehensive education on syncope, including triggers, warning signs, and preventive measures. Empower the patient to recognize and respond appropriately to symptoms, emphasizing the importance of seeking medical attention.
- Safety Measures:
- Collaborate with the patient and caregivers to establish safety measures, such as using support devices (canes, walkers), modifying the home environment to reduce fall risks, and developing an emergency plan in case of syncope.
Nursing Interventions and Rationales
| Nursing Intervention (ADPIE) | Rationale |
| Prevent injury-nonskid socks doesn’t walk without assistance, bed in the lowest locked position, necessary items within reach, call bell within reach, side rails up x3) | Sudden loss of consciousness puts patients at a higher risk for falls and injury, therefore it would be prudent to be with the patient when OOB |
| Educate the patient to change positions slowly | This enables the blood pressure to accommodate to position changes and hopefully prevent future episodes |
| Reevaluate medications, review any that may cause syncope with MD | BP meds may need to be spaced out, or dosages may need to be adjusted; discuss |
| Monitor for changes in the level of consciousness. | Monitor appropriately and notify MD if needed, promote safety |
| Promote adequate fluid intake | Prevents worsening hypotension |
Evaluation for Syncope
- Frequency of Episodes:
- Evaluate the frequency of syncope episodes over time. A reduction in the frequency or complete absence of episodes indicates successful intervention and management.
- Effectiveness of Lifestyle Changes:
- Assess the patient’s adherence to lifestyle modifications and their impact on syncope. Measure the effectiveness of interventions such as increased fluid intake and trigger avoidance.
- Medication Adherence and Adjustments:
- Evaluate the patient’s adherence to prescribed medications and assess the need for any adjustments. Monitor for side effects and collaborate with healthcare providers for medication management.
- Cardiac Monitoring Results:
- Review results from cardiac monitoring to identify any abnormal rhythms or cardiac events. Evaluate the effectiveness of interventions aimed at preventing syncope related to cardiac causes.
- Patient Empowerment:
- Assess the patient’s knowledge and confidence in managing syncope. Evaluate their ability to recognize warning signs, implement preventive measures, and seek appropriate medical attention when needed.

Transcript
Hey everyone. Today, we are going to be creating a nursing care plan for syncope, or fainting. So let’s get started. First, we’re going to go over the pathophysiology. So, syncope is essentially loss of consciousness, which is typically caused by hypertension. The brain lacks adequate blood flow, causing temporary loss of consciousness. Some nursing considerations. We want to prevent injury, slow position changes, reevaluating medications, any changes in LOS. We want to promote fluid intake. Some desired outcomes. We want no additional syncope events, no injury, identification of cause and treatment to prevent that further episode.
So we’re going to go ahead and get into the care plan. We’re going to be writing some subjective data and we’re going to be writing out some objective data. So what are we going to see in this patient? So we’re going to see that they’re going to complain of some nausea and possible blurred vision. They’ll also be hypotensive and bradycardic. Other things, they are probably going to be feeling a little cold, clammy, possibly warm,and experience some blurred vision, vomiting, loss of consciousness, possible arrhythmias, and confusion. Disorientation is a big one.
So interventions that we want to do: we want to make sure that we are preventing injury, Sudden loss of consciousness puts patients at a higher risk for falls. So you want to make sure your patient has non-skid socks, making sure that they’re not walking around without assistance. The beds in the lower locked position necessary items are within reach for the patient. Make sure the call lights are within reach for the patient and the side rails are up. We want to educate the patient to change positions slowly. This enables blood pressure to accommodate those position changes and hopefully prevents future episodes. Another invention we’re going to be doing is reevaluating their medications. So, which medications are they on that could be causing them to be pretty hypertensive; in particular, blood pressure medications may need to be spaced out or the doses may need to be adjusted. So these are things to discuss with the physician. Now an intervention we’re going to be doing is monitoring for changes in their level of consciousness, monitor appropriately for any changes and make sure you’re notifying the physician if there are any changes in the patient. We always want to make sure we’re promoting safety. Now, an intervention we’re going to be doing is to promote adequate fluid intake. So by increasing fluids, we want to prevent any worsening hypotension. Another intervention we’re going to be doing is education. Always want to make sure we’re educating the patient on their treatment plan and any protocols or interventions that we’re putting in place.
Okay, we’re going to go over the key points here. So syncope is essentially loss of consciousness, which is caused by hypertension. The brain’s lacking adequate blood flow causing temporary loss of consciousness. Some subjective objective data. They’re going to have nausea, feel cold, clammy, warm, tunnel vision, or blurred vision, loss of consciousness, hypotension, bradycardic, and confusion. We want to make sure we’re preventing injury, educating the patient on the slow positioning changes. So if they’re going from laying down to sitting up, make sure they’re doing that slowly or from sitting position to standing. We want to reevaluate their medications and monitor for changes in their level of consciousness and encourage fluid intake to prevent any further hypotension. And there you have that care plan.
Awesome. We love you guys. Go out, be your best self today and as always happy nursing.
