Alcohol intoxication is a potentially under-recognized precipitant of Brugada syndrome, and higher pre-cordial ECG lead placement increases sensitivity of detecting the Brugada pattern.
Does alcohol intoxication trigger the Brugada syndrome ECG pattern?
Alcohol intoxication should be recognized as a potential trigger for Brugada syndrome, and high pre-cordial leads can improve diagnostic sensitivity.
