This case report presents a patient who experienced a vasovagal syncope and cardiac arrest during urinary catheter removal. Pain and phobic stress can result in bradycardia, hypotension, syncope and even cardiac arrest in susceptible individuals. Appropriate treatment for vasovagal syncope includes the administration of intravenous fluids, vagolytics, ephedrine, and the rapid use of the Trendelenburg position. Here we discuss the management of our patient.

Keywords: Vasovagal syncope; Cardiac arrest.
