Microscopic VVA/VEA
Diagnosing VVA/VEA with Precision
Understanding VEA and VVA
Vasovagal syncope (VVA) and vasovagal episode (VEA) are terms that indicate a sudden decrease of blood pressure in medical emergencies that lasts for a short period and occurs in a standing position. These episodes can be concerning; however, they are usually benign, and even adequate treatment can be provided to the patient.
Microscopic Findings
The examination under the microscope of VVA/VEA includes imaging of the vessel and surrounding tissues related to VVA/VEA through specially designed instruments. This can assist healthcare professionals to:
Determinate underlying issues
Evaluate whether any internal factors, such as heart disease or nervous system problems, are responsible for precipitating VVA/VEA.
Estimate the severity
Determine the level of vasodilation or other pathology in blood vessels related to VVA/VEA.
Evaluate the efficacy of therapy
Evaluate the outcome of treatment and its elements.
Routine Findings Microscopic VVA/VEA
Many observations could be associated with microscopic examinations, including:
Dilatation of blood vessels
The measure of blood vessels may be pathologically increased, which leads to one form of low blood pressure.
Depression of nerves
There could be pathologies in the atonia nerves involved in blood pressure and pulse.
Injury or Inflammation
In some situations, specific injuries or inflammation could also be noted.
Role of Microscopic VVA/VEA in Clinic Diagnosis
Microscopic VVA/VEA proposed the following beneficial roles:
Accurate diagnosis
Assisting with confirming a diagnosis of VVA/VEA and eliminating other possibilities.
Individualization of treatment
Implementing treatment plans that focus on the underlying condition(s) and/or risk factors.
Better patient management
Improving management of VVA/VEA and diminishing the number and intensity of episodes.
