ABSTRACT Background Ventricular fibrillation (VF) is a poorly understood arrhythmia that is one of the main mechanisms of sudden cardiac death in patients with structural heart disease (SHD). Fascicular and Purkinje tissue (FPT) has been implicated in VF.

Speckle tracking echocardiography data in Brugada syndrome patients
Brugada syndrome is characterized by typical electrocardiogram changes and a high risk for sudden cardiac death (Priori et al., 2013). In addition to the well known electrical substrate, morphological and functional alterations appeared to be present in ...

Brugada syndrome is a rare arrhythmogenic syndrome that is associated with an increased risk of ventricular fibrillation and sudden cardiac death. Electrocardiographic findings include patterns similar to a right bundle branch block (RBBB) and persistent

Aims Sodium-channel blockers (SCBs) are associated with arrhythmia, but variability of cardiac electrical response remains unexplained. We sought to identify predictors of ajmaline-induced PR and QRS changes and Type I Brugada syndrome (BrS ...

A Variant of Brugada Syndrome [PDF]
Brugada syndrome is an inherited disorder that can present with syncope, cardiac arrest, or sudden cardiac death. Multiple genetic mutations have been described that cause this disease. We present a 56-year-old man who sustained an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest, was resuscitated, and was found to have typical features of the Brugada criteria on the ...

A case of Brugada syndrome [PDF]
A 48-year-old man presented himself to our clinic due to an episode of a sense of dizziness and presyncope while he was standing from which he recovered after 5 min of adopting the supine position. The patient did not have related palpitations, chest pain or shortness of breath and was feeling fully recovered at the time of the interview. The patient’s

Recently, some clinicians have been diagnosing and treating arrhythmias on the basis of electrocardiogram (ECG) devices with low accuracy. In Europe and the US, several statements on the use of ECGs have already been published by related academic societies.

Brugada syndrome and p.E61X_RANGRF
Brugada syndrome is an inherited cardiac condition transmitted with an autosomal dominant pattern which can lead to sudden cardiac death from malignant ventricular arrhythmias. The RANGRF gene has recently been proposed to be associated with Brugada syndrome.

Suspected Brugada Phenocopy Secondary to Coronary Slow Flow
Brugada syndrome (BrS) is a genetic condition that accentuates the risk of potentially lethal ventricular arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death (SCD) in a structurally normal heart. The Brugada electrocardiographic pattern may manifest separately from the

Epilepsy–heart syndrome: Concept, clinical context, and opportunity for integrated care
Abstract In this concept paper, we introduce epilepsy‐heart syndrome as a shared burden of illness between epilepsy and cardiac disorders. This pragmatic definition is agnostic of which condition came first (the epilepsy or the cardiac disorder), recognising that these conditions can each serve as a risk factor for the other owing to a bidirectional ...
