Abstract:
Differential diagnosis of wide complex tachycardia in patients taking anti-arrhythmic can be challenging. Conventional ECG diagnostic criteria are poorly specific and should be applied with caution. Patients who develop life-threatening arrhythmias after flecainide infusion should be screened for Brugada Syndrome, especially if concomitant sinus node dysfunction is present.
