What are the effects and safety of anesthesia techniques in patients with Brugada syndrome?
This systematic review summarizes the available evidence on the effects and safety of anesthesia techniques in patients with Brugada syndrome to guide clinical practice in the absence of consensus reports.

Requires careful perioperative monitoring in Brugada syndrome; leaves open consensus guidelines pending prospective studies.
Brugada syndrome is a genetic disease leading to sudden cardiac death, which is characterized by a spontaneous or induced ST-segment elevation with right bundle branch block in V1-3 leads in electrocardiography in those without any structural heart disease. As there is a limited number of experiences on anesthetizing patients with Brugada syndrome, no consensus report for clinical practice has been available yet. In this systematic review, we discussed the anesthesia techniques, and the effects and safety of anesthesia applied in this rarely seen heart disease.
