Resumo

Brugada syndrome (BrS) is characterized by dynamic ST-elevations in right precordial leads and increased risk of ventricular fibrillation and sudden cardiac death. As the mechanism underlying ST-elevation and malignant arrhythmias is controversial computational modeling can aid in exploring the disease mechanism. Thus we aim to test the main competing hypotheses ('delayed depolarization' vs. 'early repolarization') of BrS in a whole-heart computational model.
