Overview
Differentiating Brugada Syndrome from other Disease
- Abnormalities that can lead to ST-segment elevation in the right precordial leads
- Acute myocardial ischemia or infarction
- Acute myocarditis
- Acute pulmonary thromboemboli
- Arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia / cardiomyopathy (ARVD/C)
- Cocaine intoxication
- Dissecting aortic aneurysm
- Duchenne muscular dystrophy
- Friedreich ataxia
- Heterocyclic antidepressant overdose
- Hypercalcemia
- Hyperkalemia
- Hypothermia, causing Osborn wave in ECGs and sometimes resembling Brugada syndrome
- Left ventricular hypertrophy
- Mediastinal tumor compressing the right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT)
- Right or left bundle-branch block
- Right ventricular infarction
- Right ventricular ischemia
- Thiamine deficiency
- Various central and autonomic nervous system abnormalities
- Early repolarization syndrome
- Other normal variants (particularly in males)
