Die Synkope ist eine plötzlich eintretende, kurzzeitige Bewusstseinsstörung mit Tonusverlust, die ohne weitere Intervention vollständig reversibel ist. Eine Abgrenzung von anderen kurzzeitigen Veränderungen des Bewusstseins wie bei Epilepsien, Durchblutungsstörungen des Hirnstamms, metabolischen Störungen, Intoxikationen, psychogenen Anfällen und traumatischen Bewusstseinsstörungen ist wichtig, da sie die weitere Diagnostik leitet und die Therapie bedingt.
