ABSTRACT

Objetivo: Analizar el riesgo específico para las variables: patrón tipo 1 espontáneo, patrón tipo 1 inducido, patrón tipo 1 con variabilidad espontánea, síncope, antecedente de muerte súbita familiar, fibrilación auricular y flutter auricular, con el desarrollo subsecuente de eventos arrítmicos malignos. Métodos: Se analizaron retrospectivamente 43 pacientes con síndrome de Brugada (90% hombres; edad media 40.4 años), con patrón tipo 1 espontáneo (74.4%) o inducido por ajmalina (25.6%). El 58.1% presentó variabilidad espontánea. El 18.6% tenía antecedente de muerte súbita familiar. El 39.5% era sintomático. El 18.6% presentó fibrilación auricular o flutter auricular. El antecedente de un paro cardiaco resucitado, muerte súbita o choque apropiado del desfibrilador automático implantable se consideró evento arrítmico maligno. Durante un seguimiento promedio de 51 meses no se registraron muertes, el 6.9% de los pacientes presentó un evento arrítmico maligno, y en su totalidad fueron choques apropiados. La tasa anual de eventos arrítmicos malignos en los pacientes con síncope fue del 1.7%, con un patrón tipo 1 espontáneo, del 2.79%, y con variabilidad espontánea, del 2.87%. No se observaron eventos arrítmicos malignos en los asintomáticos y en aquellos con un patrón persistente o tipo 1 inducido. La tasa anual de eventos con antecedente positivo o negativo de muerte súbita familiar fue del 2.94 y 1.7%, respectivamente. En presencia de fibrilación auricular, flutter auricular y fibrilación auricular/flutter auricular fue del 7.3, 15.69 y 10%, respectivamente. En ausencia de fibrilación/flutter no se observaron eventos arrítmicos malignos. Conclusión: De las variables analizadas, las que tuvieron mayor relación con la presencia de un evento arrítmico maligno fueron la presencia de fibrilación auricular (p = 0,046) y de flutter auricular (p = 0,03).


Objective: To analyze the specific risk for the variables: type 1 spontaneous pattern, type 1 induced pattern, type 1 pattern with spontaneous variability, syncope, family history of sudden death, atrial fibrillation and atrial flutter with the subsequent development of malignant arrhythmic events. Methods: Forty-three Brugada patients (90% males; mean age 40.4 years), with a type 1 spontaneous pattern (74.4%) or induced by ajmaline (25.6%) were retrospectively analyzed. Of these, 58.1% presented spontaneous variability, 18.6% had family history of sudden death, 39.5% were symptomatic, and 18.6% presented atrial fibrillation or atrial flutter. The antecedents of resuscitated cardiac arrest, sudden death or appropriate shock from implantable automatic defibrillator were considered malignant arrhythmic events. During a mean follow up of 51 months, no deaths were recorded, 6.9% of the patients presented a malignant arrhythmic event, and all of them were appropriate shocks. The annual rate of events in patients with syncope was 1.7%, with a spontaneous type 1 pattern was 2.79%, and spontaneous variability was 2.87%. No malignant arrhythmic event was observed in asymptomatic patients or in those with a persistent pattern or induced type 1 pattern. The annual rate of events with positive or negative history of family sudden death was 2.94 and 1.7%, respectively. In the presence of atrial fibrillation, atrial flutter and atrial fibrillation/atrial flutter were 7.3, 15.69 and 10%, respectively. In the absence of atrial fibrillation/atrial flutter no malignant arrhythmic events were observed. Conclusion: Of the variables analyzed, the one that was most related to a malignant arrhythmic event was the presence of atrial fibrillation (P= .046) and atrial flutter (P= .03).
