Syncope is a common reason for emergency department (ED) presentation. While often benign, some patients have serious and life-threatening underlying causes, both cardiac and non-cardiac, which may or may not be apparent at the time of the initial ED assessment. Identifying which patients will benefit from further investigation, ongoing monitoring and/or hospital admission is essential to reduce both adverse outcomes and high costs. The research team has spent over a decade developing the evidence base for a risk stratification tool directed at optimizing the accuracy of ED decisions: the Canadian Syncope Risk Score (CSRS). This tool is now ready for the final phase of its introduction into clinical practice, namely a robust, multicentre implementation trial of the CSRS-based practice recommendations to demonstrate its real-world effectiveness. These recommendations, if applied, could lead to reduction in hospitalization with only 6% of high-risk patients requiring hospitalization, shorter ED lengths of stay for the 76% of ED syncope patients who are at low risk for 30-day serious outcomes, and more standardized disposition decisions, specifically discharge of 18% of medium-risk patients after appropriate discussion. Hence, the investigators hypothesize that an important reduction in hospitalization and ED disposition time can be achieved by implementing the CSRS-based recommendations with potential improvements in patient safety. The overall objective of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of the knowledge translation (KT) of the CSRS-based practice recommendations in multiple Canadian EDs using a stepped wedge cluster randomized trial (SW-CRT) on health care efficiency and patient safety.
