  • Title: Life-threatening "vagal reaction" to emotional stimuli.
    Author: Schlesinger Z, Barzilay J, Stryjer D, Almog CH.
    Journal: Isr J Med Sci; 1977 Jan; 13(1):59-61. PubMed ID: 838572.
    Abstract:
    "Vagal reactions" may follow sudden emotional or physical strain in "vagotonic individuals" and are usually benign. In the case described, emotional stimuli caused life-threatening vagal reactions in a "healthy individual." Implantation of an artifical pacemaker was necessary to control the attacks.
