Arrhythmic Risk Stratification by Programmed Ventricular Stimulation in Brugada Syndrome The End of the Debate ?

One of the most controversial issues debated by cardiac electrophysiologists during the past decade has been whether programmed ventricular stimulation (PVS) plays any role in the arrhythmic risk stratification of the Brugada syndrome (BrS). The results of the multicenter study published in 2003 by the Brugada brothers were unequivocal. In a study involving 408 BrS individuals with no previous ...

Performance of electrophysiologic study in an asymptomatic patient with type 2 intermittent Brugada syndrome: To do or not to do?

Background: Brugada syndrome (BrS) is an inherited channelopathy, which is associated with sudden cardiac death due to rapid polymorphic VT or VF. There is no definite consensus regarding the management of asymptomatic patients. Some experts advocate close follow-up; others propose the programmed stimulation for risk stratification. We aimed to evaluate the benefit of complete atrial and ventri...

Risk Stratification in Brugada Syndrome: Role of Programmed Electrical Stimulation

Brugada syndrome (BS) is an arrhythmogenic disease characterized by a typical electrocardiographic finding (type 1 Brugada electrocardiogram [ECG]) and an increased risk for sudden cardiac death (SCD) due to polymorphic ventricular tachycardia or ventricular fibrillation (VF). Risk stratification remains a challenge, especially in cases without documented cardiac arrest or VF. The role of progr...

Long-term prognosis of individuals with right precordial ST-segment-elevation Brugada syndrome.

BACKGROUND Brugada syndrome is an arrhythmogenic disease characterized by an ECG pattern of ST-segment elevation in the right precordial leads and an increased risk of sudden cardiac death as a result of ventricular fibrillation. Controversy exists with regard to risk stratification and therapeutic management, particularly in asymptomatic individuals. METHODS AND RESULTS A total of 212 indivi...
