Syncope is defined as a transient loss of consciousness (T-LOC) due to brief global cerebral hypoperfusion characterized by rapid onset, short duration, and spontaneous complete recovery. Typical syncope is brief, lasting less than 20 seconds in duration. However, syncope rarely may last longer, even as much as several minutes.
