Abstract:
Brugada syndrome is an established cause of sudden cardiac arrest in patients without structural cardiac abnormalities. Recognition and diagnosis of this syndrome has been slowly increasing. Syncope, ventricular dysrhythmia, or sudden cardiac arrest may be the presenting symptom, although detection of the characteristic right precordial ST-segment elevation on ECG can be a potentially lifesaving intervention. This article reviews the clinical presentation, pathophysiology, genetics, and current management of Brugada syndrome.
