Brugada syndrome (BrS) is an inherited channelopathy that predisposes individuals to malignant arrhythmias and can lead to sudden cardiac death. The condition is characterized by two electrocardiography (ECG) patterns: the type-1 or "coved" ECG and the type-2 or "saddleback" ECG. Although the type-1 Brugada ECG pattern is diagnostic for the condition, the type-2 Brugada ECG pattern requires differential diagnosis from conditions that produce a similar morphology. In this article, we present a case that is suspicious but not diagnostic for BrS and discuss the application of ECG methodologies for increasing or decreasing suspicion for a diagnosis of BrS.
布加综合征(BrS)是一种遗传性离子通道病,使个体易患恶性心律失常,并可导致心源性猝死。该病具有两种心电图(ECG)模式:1型或“穹窿型”ECG和2型或“马鞍型”ECG。虽然1型布加综合征ECG模式可诊断该病,但2型布加综合征ECG模式需要与产生相似形态的疾病进行鉴别诊断。在本文中,我们介绍了一例疑似但不能确诊为布加综合征的病例,并讨论了ECG方法在增加或降低布加综合征诊断怀疑度方面的应用。
