Precipitating factors include pain, emotional stress, trauma, fatigue, blood loss, and prolonged motionless standing. These syncopes are consisted of sudden hypo- tension and bradycardia, associated with nausea, dizziness and sweating. We experienced a case of vasovagal syncope during suprascapular nerve block by local anesthetics in a 63-year-old female patient presented with adhesive capsulitis.
