High-Density Substrate Mapping in Brugada Syndrome. Combined Role of Conduction and Repolarization Heterogeneities in Arrhythmogenesis
Circulation, 07/02/09
Lambiase PD et al. - Marked regional endocardial conduction delay and heterogeneities in repolarization exist in BS. Wave break in areas of maximal conduction delay appears to be critical in the initiation and maintenance of ventricular tachycardia. These data indicate that further studies of mapping BS to identify slow-conduction zones should be considered to determine their role in spontaneous ventricular arrhythmias.
