In order to assess the diagnostic value of invasive electrophysiologic study (EPS) in thepatients with unexplained syncope, the electrophysiologic findings of 268 patients with unexplainedsyncope despite a complete clinical evaluation were analyzed. Results showed positive EPS findingwas 38% in total patients and S0% in the patients aged >70 years. With increasing age, the diag-nostic yield of EPS also increased.
