SCN5A mutation in Brugada syndrome is associated with substrate severity detected by ECG imaging and high density electroanatomical mapping
Heart Rhythm(2022)
摘要
Background
Brugada syndrome (BrS) is caused by mutations in SCN5A gene in 15%-20% of cases. Previous studies showed worse prognosis in SCN5A mutation carriers (SCN5A+). To date, there are no data on genotype–phenotype correlation with electrocardiographic (ECG) imaging (ECGI) and high-density epicardial electroanatomic map.Objective
This study aimed to correlate SCN5A mutation with substrate severity in BrS assessed by ECGI and high-density electroanatomic map.Methods
All consecutive BrS patients undergoing ECGI and high-density epicardial electroanatomic map with HD Grid Mapping Catheter were retrospectively analyzed. On ECGI, the following parameters were analyzed before and after ajmaline administration: right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) activation time (RVOT-AT) and RVOT recovery time (RVOT-RT). On electroanatomic map, the parameters analyzed before and after ajmaline were high-frequency potential activation time (HFPat), high-frequency potential duration (HFPd), high-frequency potential amplitude (HFPa), low-frequency potential activation time (LFPat), low-frequency potential duration (LFPd), and low-frequency potential amplitude (LFPa).Results
Thirty-nine BrS patients with ECGI were included. Eight patients (20.5%) were SCN5A+. At baseline ECGI map, mean RVOT-RT was longer in SCN5A+ (P = .024). After ajmaline administration, SCN5A+ patients showed longer RVOT-AT (125.6 vs 100.8 ms; P = .045) and longer RVOT-RT (426.4 vs 397 ms; P = .033). After ajmaline administration, SCN5A+ showed longer HFPat (164.1 vs 119.5 ms; P = .041); longer LFPat (272.7 vs 200.5 ms; P = .018); and longer LFPd (211.9 vs 151.2 ms; P = .033).Conclusion
In BrS, SCN5A+ patients compared with SCN5A– patients exhibit marked depolarization and repolarization abnormalities as assessed by ECGI and epicardial high-density electroanatomic map.查看译文
