Key result
Clinical history, spontaneous type 1 ECG, and PVS guide SCD risk stratification in Brugada syndrome.
Why the study?
Stratification of sudden cardiac death in Brugada syndrome is not always easy and constitutes a challenge for the practitioner.
This review summarizes the current state of knowledge regarding arrhythmic risk stratification and the prevention of sudden cardiac death in patients with Brugada syndrome.

Guides ICD decisions via history, ECG, and stimulation in Brugada syndrome; leaves open prospective validation of protocols.
Darar et al. (2022) conducted a review in Brugada syndrome. Risk stratification and ICD implantation was evaluated. Risk stratification for sudden cardiac death in Brugada syndrome relies on clinical history, spontaneous type 1 ECG pattern, and programmed ventricular stimulation to guide implantable cardioverter-defibrillator therapy.
