Jun 2nd, 2020 - Background - Brugada syndrome (BrS) is an oligogenic arrhythmic disease with increased risk of sudden cardiac arrest (SCA). Several BrS or ECG traits-related single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were identified through previous genome-wide assoc...

May 30th, 2020 - BACKGROUND The presentation of Brugada syndrome (BrS) with a persistent left superior vena cava (PLSVC) is expected to be a rare entity. It is unknown if this venous anomaly is linked to the arrhythmogenesis seen in BrS, or it is coincidental. Thi...

May 28th, 2020 - The relative proportion of each cardiac inherited disease (CID) causing resuscitated sudden cardiac arrest (RSCA) on a population basis is unknown. This study describes the profile of patients with CIDs presenting with RSCA; their data were collec...

May 18th, 2020 - We report the case of a 57-year-old male patient with prior syncope associated with sustained ventricular tachycardia in the setting of Brugada syndrome, who was submitted to implantation of a cardioverter defibrillator for secondary prevention. D...

May 10th, 2020 - Atrial electrophysiological abnormalities have previously been reported in Brugada syndrome. We investigated the incidence and electrocardiographic predictors of atrial fibrillation (AF) in a Chinese cohort of Brugada syndrome patients. A retrospe...

Jul 31st, 2018 - Our analysis has 2 objectives. First, to evaluate whether ventricular arrhythmias (VAs) induced with programmed electrostimulation in asymptomatic patients with Brugada syndrome identify a higher risk group that may require additional testing or t.

Jul 8th, 2018 - A study reevaluating genes reported to be associated with Brugada syndrome challenged the validity of all but one. (Circulation) The American College of Cardiology renamed its ACTION Registry under the National Cardiovascular Data Registry umbrell...

Apr 25th, 2018 - Editor's note: This is an edited translation of an interview posted on Medscape en Español. Jorge González, MD: I'm Jorge González, and I am here with Dr Josep Brugada. It is a real pleasure to discuss the past 25 years of the Brugada syndrome. I ...

Oct 10th, 2017 - Action Points Long-term follow-up of Brugada syndrome patients confirmed the efficacy of implanted cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) devices but also substantial adverse event risk. The predictors of appropriate therapy were a type 1 electrocardiog...

Sep 11th, 2017 - The Absorb bioresorbable stent will come rapidly off the market worldwide due to poor sales, Abbott announced, although the firm may return with a second-generation device. MedPage Today has the full story here. Kids' exposure to chemical-laden du...

Aug 3rd, 2016 - Patients with Brugada syndrome are at risk of inappropriate shocks from subcutaneous implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (sICD) during changes in their electrocardiogram (ECG) pattern, investigators found. Morphology analysis failed in 24% of p...
