Brugada syndrome is a genetic heart disease. It is characterized by alterations in genes that direct the formation of cardiac proteins that regulate the passage of ions from the cell membrane. The electrocardiogram is the main test to diagnose this disease. You also need to perform an echocardiogram to see if there are abnormalities in the heart's structure. There is also a genetic test that can identify this genetic alteration confirming the disease.
