This case study explores a Brugada-type electrocardiogram pattern induced by a propafenone overdose. It questions whether this represents Brugada syndrome, a Brugada phenocopy, or another condition.
Area of Science:
- Cardiology
- Clinical Electrophysiology
- Pharmacology
Background:
- Brugada syndrome is an inherited arrhythmia characterized by ST-segment elevation in right precordial leads.
- Brugada phenocopies mimic this ECG pattern due to various clinical conditions.
- Propafenone is a Class Ic antiarrhythmic drug with potential proarrhythmic effects.
