Abstract:
Brugada syndrome is a genetic disease characterized by persistent or transient ST elevation in the right precordial electrocardiogram (ECG) leads with or without right bundle branch block. It represents an increased risk for sudden cardiac death despite a structurally normal heart. Brugada-type ECG can be unmasked and induced by several circumstances. We report on a 24-year-old male patient who experienced a syncopal episode and manifested Brugada type 1 ECG during a febrile state. His ECG changed to normal after treatment of fever. A single-chamber ICD was implanted to the patient because of syncope, fever-induced type I Brugada ECG pattern, and ventricular fibrillation during ajmaline challenge.

Electrocardiogram Fundamentals
An electrocardiogram (ECG) is a diagnostic tool for identifying cardiac conditions such as arrhythmias, conduction abnormalities, and myocardial ischemia.
Definition
An electrocardiogram (ECG) visualizes the heart's electrical activity by tracing the electrical movement associated with each heartbeat on a graph or monitor. As the heart beats, an electrical wave passes through it, correlating with the cardiac cycle events.

Seizures: Classification
Seizures are typically classified into two main categories: focal and generalized seizures.
Focal Seizures
Focal seizures originate from specific regions of the brain. These seizures are further sub-classified into two types:
