Journal ArticleDOI

Implantable cardioverter-defibrillator therapy in Brugada syndrome: a 20-year single-center experience.

TL;DR: ICD therapy was an effective strategy in Brugada syndrome, treating potentially lethal arrhythmias in 17% of patients during long-term follow-up, and risk stratification by electrophysiologic study may identify asymptomatic patients at risk for arrhythmic events and could be helpful in investigating syncope not related to VAs.
Journal ArticleDOI

A score model to predict risk of events in patients with Brugada Syndrome.

TL;DR: Investigation of long-term prognosis and risk stratification of BS patients found patients remain at risk many years after diagnosis, and early SCD in first-degree relatives and SND are risk factors for arrhythmic events.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prognostic value of programmed electrical stimulation in Brugada syndrome: 20 years experience.

TL;DR: Programmed ventricular stimulation of the heart is a good predictor of outcome in individuals with Brugada syndrome and might be of special value to guide further management when performed in asymptomatic individuals.
