Some of them may develop heart failure, arrhythmias, thromboembolic events and even sudden cardiac death rarely. When non-compaction is associated with left ventricular dysfunction it is called left ventricular non-compaction cardiomyopathy. Familial occurrence in up to 30% of first degree relatives have been noted [1].

And right ventricular hypertrophy and the abnormal architecture of the right ventricle, can predispose to late arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death in repaired tetralogy of Fallot. Post operative arrhythmias, long term arrhythmias, an important cause of sudden cardiac death in repaired tetralogy of Fallot.

Brugada syndrome is thought to account for about one fourth of sudden cardiac deaths in individuals with structurally normal heart. Even though mutations in other channels have been described in Brugada syndrome, only those in SCN5A gene are considered to be definitely disease causing. mV or R/q ≥ 0.75.

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.

Then, why is it mentioned that, implanting a defibrillator soon after an acute myocardial infarction, in those with left ventricular dysfunction and prone for ventricular arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death, is not useful? Mostly for protection against sudden cardiac death. So, this is how an ICD works.
