Abstract
Wlat are the proper diagnostic cliteria to be used in identifying Brugada syndrome? A definitive answer to this question has been out ofreach and is the reason for the establishment of a special Arrhythrn:a Working Group of the European Society of Cardiology that met on 31 August-l September 2000. This report is the consensus document emanating from that meeting. The diagnostic criteria described hereiu are based on the currentiy available ciinical data and state-of-the-art understanding of the molecuiar and cellular mechanisms underlying Brugada syndrome. The proposed criteria must be considered a work-in-progress that will be fine-tuned as confirmatoqr data from future molecular studies and prospective trials become available'I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
