Life-threatening "vagal reaction" to emotional stimuli.

Z Schlesinger, J Barzilay, D Stryjer, C H Almog.   

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.
