Özet

Background: We wished to compare the San Francisco Syncope Rule (SFSR), Evaluation of Guidelines in Syncope Study (EGSYS) and the Osservatorio Epidemiologico sulla Sincope nel Lazio (OESIL) risk scores and to assess their efficacy in recognising patients with syncope at high risk for short-term adverse events (death, the need for major therapeutic procedures, and early readmission to the hospital). We also wanted to test those variables to designate a local risk score, the Anatolian Syncope Rule (ASR).
