ABSTRACT

Background

Vasovagal Syncope (VVS) shares the autonomic system effect and commonality with smoking, raising the question of this study about the possibility of tending to smoke among medical students to prevent the VVS.

Methods

A cross-sectional study was conducted using a self-administered online questionnaire distributed to Jordanian clinical medical students, interns, and junior residents. From 525 initial responses, 456 participants met the inclusion criteria. VVS was defined based on the clinical criteria from the self-responded questionnaires.
