She was found to be in ventricular fibrillation and was defibrillated 8 times without a single, even transient, conversion out of fibrillation. She was immediately intubated during continued compressions, then underwent a 9th defibrillation, which resulted in an organized rhythm at 42 minutes after initial arrest. see below).

She was never seen to be in ventricular fibrillation and was never defibrillated. Note that they finally have laid to rest the new or presumably new LBBB as a criteria for STEMI.

If it is STEMI, it would have to be RBBB with STEMI. Cardioversion/defibrillation. But — one of the causes of Brugada Phenocopy is acute infarction — so I didn’t know how to distinguish between a preexisting Brugada-1 ECG pattern vs a Brugada ECG pattern developing as a result of acute ongoing anterior STEMI. Hypothermia.

2) The STE in V1 and V2 has an R'-wave and downsloping ST segments, very atypical for STEMI. Cardiology was consulted and they agreed that the EKG had an atypical morphology for STEMI and did not activate the cath lab. Smith comment: 1) Brugada ECG may have ST shifts in limb leads as well as precordial leads. Bicarb 20, Lactate 4.2,

Several 200 J shocks did not terminate the VF, so a second defibrillator was applied for double sequential defibrillation with 400 J. She was defibrillated perhaps 25 times. Propranolol versus Metoprolol for treatment of electrical storm in patients with implantable cardioverter-defibrillator. SanzRuiz, R., Solis, J., &
