체온상승에 의해 저명해진 Indiopathic Brugada ECG Pattern 환자 1예
Abstract
Brugada syndrome is characterized by a peculiar ST-segment elevation in the right precordial leads often associated with a right bundle branch block(RBBB) pattern. Mutations in a cardiac sodium channel gene have been linked to Brugada syndrome. Some studies suggest that temperature above the physiological range may aggravate the dysfunction of the mutant channel, and may display a more abnormal ECG patterns. We report a patient do not have Brugada clinical symptoms but have a typical Brugada ECG pattern developed in relation to fever which could not reproduced at normal temperature.
Key Words: Brugada syndrome, Febrile illness, Electrocardiogram
