Characteristically, syncope may occur while the individual is '''standing motionless''' during the first five to ten minutes after exercise <cite>Bjurstedt</cite>. Especially athletes in the (ultra) endurance sports are at risk for post exercise vasovagal syncope e.g. after marathon swimming | Characteristically, syncope may occur while the individual is '''standing motionless''' during the first five to ten minutes after exercise <cite>Bjurstedt</cite>.

However, when treadmill testing is immediately followed by passive head-up tilt testing, this percentage can increase up to 50-70% <cite>Bjurstedt</cite>. | ||
