Disease characteristics

Excerpted from the GeneReview: Brugada Syndrome
Brugada syndrome is characterized by cardiac conduction abnormalities (ST segment abnormalities in leads V1-V3 on EKG and a high risk for ventricular arrhythmias) that can result in sudden death. Brugada syndrome presents primarily during adulthood, although age at diagnosis may range from infancy to late adulthood. The mean age of sudden death is approximately 40 years. Clinical presentations may also include sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS; death of a child during the first year of life without an identifiable cause) and sudden unexpected nocturnal death syndrome (SUNDS), a typical presentation in individuals from Southeast Asia. Other conduction defects can include first-degree AV block, intraventricular conduction delay, right bundle branch block, and sick sinus syndrome. [from GeneReviews]

Additional description

From OMIM
Brugada Syndrome 7 Brugada syndrome is characterized by an ST segment elevation in the right precordial electrocardiogram leads (so-called type 1 ECG) and a high incidence of sudden death in patients with structurally normal hearts. The syndrome typically manifests during adulthood, with a mean age of sudden death of 41 +/- 15 years, but also occurs in infants and children (summary by Antzelevitch et al., 2005). For a discussion of genetic heterogeneity of Brugada syndrome, see BRGDA1 (601144). Atrial Fibrillation 16 Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common cardiac arrhythmia in the clinical setting, with a prevalence of 1% in the general population; prevalence increases with age and reaches more than 8% in the ninth decade of life. AF accounts for more than 15% of strokes, and is associated with worsening heart failure and increased mortality. More than 30% of cases of AF are considered to be 'lone AF,' unassociated with coronary artery disease, hypertension, valvular heart disease, hyperthyroidism, heart failure, or structural heart disease (summary by Wang et al., 2010). For a discussion of genetic heterogeneity of atrial fibrillation, see ATFB1 (608583).  http://www.omim.org/entry/613120

Clinical features

From HPO
Atrial flutter
MedGen UID:
13955
Concept ID:
C0004239
Pathologic Function
A type of atrial arrhythmia characterized by atrial rates of between 240 and 400 beats per minute and some degree of atrioventricular node conduction block. Typically, the ventricular rate is half the atrial rate. In the EKG; atrial flutter waves are observed as sawtooth-like atrial activity. Pathophysiologically, atrial flutter is a form of atrial reentry in which there is a premature electrical impulse creates a self-propagating circuit.
Paroxysmal atrial fibrillation
MedGen UID:
115990
Concept ID:
C0235480
Disease or Syndrome
Episodes of atrial fibrillation that typically last for several hours up to one day and terminate spontaneously.
Prolonged P wave
MedGen UID:
606917
Concept ID:
C0429022
Finding
Abnormal increased in the duration of the P wave, which is a marker of delayed inter-atrial conduction.
ST segment elevation
MedGen UID:
99256
Concept ID:
C0520886
Finding
An electrocardiographic anomaly in which the ST segment is observed to be located superior to the isoelectric line.
Permanent atrial fibrillation
MedGen UID:
750308
Concept ID:
C2586056
Pathologic Function
Atrial fibrillation (AF) that cannot be successfully terminated by cardioversion, and longstanding (more than 1 year) AF, where cardioversion is not indicated or has not been attempted, is termed permanent.
