Abstract
- Patients might feel nauseated, faint, and fall down after immunization syncope, resulting in injuries, including even fatal head injuries. To reduce the risks of injuries, it is important to talk to the patient before the injection, reassure him if he is nervous, and after the vaccination escort him to his seat and keep him under observation.
