Does not meet Brugada VT algorithm (consider SVT with aberrancy)
Band: Does not meet Brugada VT algorithm (consider SVT with aberrancy)
Interpretation. Does not meet Brugada VT algorithm (consider SVT with aberrancy)
Suggested management. None of the four Brugada steps positive — SVT with aberrancy more likely, but clinical judgment required.
Brugada Criteria for Ventricular Tachycardia: 0 — Does not meet Brugada VT algorithm (consider SVT with aberrancy). Interpretation: Does not meet Brugada VT algorithm (consider SVT with aberrancy) What to do: None of the four Brugada steps positive — SVT with aberrancy more likely, but clinical judgment required. Inputs: Absence of an RS complex in all precordial leads (+1): false; R-to-S interval >100 ms in one precordial lead (+1): false; AV dissociation present (+1): false; Morphology criteria for VT present in V1–V2 and V6 (+1): false Source: Brugada P et al. A new approach to the differential diagnosis of a regular tachycardia with a wide QRS complex. Circulation. DOI: 10.1161/01.CIR.83.5.1649. PMID: 2022022. Scope: stepwise wide-complex tachycardia algorithm — absence of an RS complex in all precordial leads, RS interval >100 ms in any precordial lead, AV dissociation, or VT morphology criteria favor ventricular tachycardia (sensitivity 0.987, specificity 0.965 in the validation set).
