Transcript of the video: Brugada Syndrome was described by Brugada brothers in 1992 as right bundle branch block pattern in anterior leads with ST segment elevation and syncope or sudden cardiac death and it was later in 1998, that the genetic basis of the disease was identified, with mutations in sodium channel.

A prior ECG from 1 month ago was available: The presentation ECG was interpreted as STEMI and the patient was transferred emergently to the nearest PCI center. She has not yet been seen by electrophysiology or had further genetic testing for Brugada syndrome. So maybe she is better than I am. per year.

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. She has not yet been seen by electrophysiology or had further genetic testing for Brugada syndrome. per year.

Note: according to the STEMI paradigm these ECGs are easy, but in reality they are difficult. Theres inferior STE which meets STEMI criteria, but this is in the context of tall R waves (18mm) and relatively small T waves, and the STD/TWI in aVL is concordant to the negative QRS. This was false positive STEMI with an ECG mimicking OMI.

How well does the computer interpretation perform? -- in this case, the computer diagnosed STEMI but the patient had Fever with Brugada _ _ Fever and Brugada-- Important articles The literature below shows that fever-induced Brugada is indeed a high risk for an arrhythmic event. Syncope and ST Segment Elevation. And another finding.
