I understand that Synkope means syncope, but what about NÆRsynkope? Any good ideas? While I'm here, anyone recommend a really good Nor_Eng medical glossary?

near-syncope
Near-syncope is what I would suggest
- without further contest.
The state of being barely conscious, or perhaps when others are not certain whether the patient is completely 'out' or just extremely dizzy...
It is not always instantaneous or cut and dried.
Masses of convincing google hits - choose for yourself.
I specialise in Danish and can warmly recommend Medicinsk-odontologisk Ordbog, Gyldendal, Morten Pilegaard & Helge Baden, but it is Danish and not Norwegian.
ISBN 87-02-03175-2

From the American College of Physicians:
Near syncope. The condition is also known as "presyncope." When you ask, "What do you mean, 'dizzy'?" these patients answer, 'I feel like I am going to faint,' " Dr. Samuels said. Patients typically feel dizzy when they stand up suddenly, as a result of a decrease in blood flow to the brain.

: Your answer presyncope is incorrect. The question is not præsynkope. I therefore agreed with Christine's answer

they are synonymes//well if you want to be pedantic ;-) but by te same token, you could translate "præsynkope" by near syncope and it would not be incorrect
