     Extractions: Fainting Goats The most common story about their origin seems to be that in the later part of the 1800's; a mysterious old man came to Marshall County, Tennessee, bringing with him a sacred cow and four goats which exhibited a strange habit of fainting when startled. A Dr. Mayberry purchased the goats for a total sum of $36. From those four goats taken to Tennessee by this old man, were the first of a line that later flourished throughout the state. Heavily muscled, the goats were prized for their meat, and were easily kept, because they did not have climbing abilities typical of other goats. The trait of them collapsing into a "faint" led to their becoming an endangered species in the later 1970's, when an influx of coyotes in Tennessee made easy prey on the fainting goats. It is now estimated that about 3,000 tainting goats inhabit the United States.

Medical Specialties Pediatrics Pediatrics Overview Patient Stories Diseases, Treatments and Services Appointments ... Other Specialties - Rochester Syncope is defined as a sudden, abrupt, self-limited loss of consciousness with spontaneous recovery. Syncope may also be called a fainting spell, a collapse, or a black-out. Syncope is a very common, and usually very benign, event during childhood and adolescence. About 10 to 15 percent of all teenagers will have a syncopal episode. The most common faint is the so-called vasovagal faint, also termed neurocardiogenic syncope. Here, the individual may have a warm, queezy, dizzy sensation just prior to collapsing. This kind of syncope is of no real concern unless a physical injury occurs from striking a hard object during the fall. A cardiologist evaluating a chief complaint may only need to perform a careful history and physical before reassuring a patient of having this very common kind of faint. When necessary, an electrocardiogram (ECG or EKG) and/or tilt-table testing may be performed. Most children "out-grow" the common faint and do not require any therapy. Others, having frequent faints, may benefit from increased water intake, salt retention strategies, and beta-blocker therapy. Probably less than 5 percent of all faints result from a more worrisome condition that may stem from valvular heart disease like aortic stenosis, primary heart muscle disease like hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, or primary electrical diseases of the heart like long QT syndrome. If someone faints in the setting of intense exertion, this should prompt a very careful evaluation that will likely include an ultrasound of the heart (echocardiogram), an ECG, and perhaps exercise and pharmacologic stress testing. A "flight-fight-fright" faint is considered malignant until proven otherwise.

     fainting. Most regularly. Normally the causes of a fainting episode are of little consequence and no further investigation is needed.

     Extractions: Fainting Most people faint at some stage during their life so there is a readiness to assume that fainting is not a serious problem and thus most people would not contact their GP unless the fainting episodes occur regularly. Normally the causes of a fainting episode are of little consequence and no further investigation is needed. On the other hand a fainting episode could be the first sign of a potentially serious condition in a person who would normally be considered to be fit and healthy. If a fainting episode is associated with any of the following unusual situations then medical advise should be sought regarding the possibility of having a heart condition :- Fainting occurs during physical exertion. Fainting with emotional stress or extreme anger. Fainting with sudden noise or arousal from rest or sleep. Fainting or appearance of seizing during sleep. Syncope The medical term for fainting or loss of consciousness is ‘syncope’, the patient looses consciousness generally following symptoms of dizziness, light headedness, alterations in or loss of vision and sometimes extreme ringing in the ears or loss of hearing. Loss of muscle control will cause the patient to fall to the ground or slump if seated. There may be other symptoms such as an irregular or rapid heart rhythm (arrhythmia), sweating and nausea. Jerks and spasms may occur, these may look similar to an epileptic seizure but these movements are not associated with epilepsy. An irregular, slow or rapid heart rhythm (arrhythmia ) interferes with the pumping of blood by the heart resulting in the brain being deprived of an adequate flow of blood. Low blood flow decreases optimal oxygen level in the brain and loss of consciousness occurs. Fainting caused by an arrhythmia is usually sudden and without warning, it may occur during or shortly after exercise and is accompanied by gasping or absence of breath. Loss of consciousness can last from one to several minutes, in some cases resuscitation may be required.
