Welcome to STARS International
Working together with individuals, families and medical professionals to offer support and information on Syncope and Reflex Anoxic Seizures
STARS (Syncope Trust And Reflex anoxic Seizures), The Blackouts Trust, was founded by Trudie Lobban in March 1993. The information and support group was established at the request of a paediatric neurologist after Trudie's daughter was diagnosed as having Reflex Anoxic Seizures (RAS) - a form of syncope.
Since then STARS has undergone rapid expansion and the support and information group that was originally established is now an international patient organisation working together with the support of the STARS International Medical Advisory Committee with the overall aim to ensure that anyone presenting with unexplained loss of consciousness receives the correct diagnosis, the appropriate treatment, informed support and sign posting to the appropriate medical professional.
