Abstract

We illustrate the case Brugada Type 1 pattern on electrocardiogram in a setting of hyperkalemia, changes which were reversible following normalization of serum potassium levels. Although Brugada Type 1 syndrome is associated with sudden cardiac death, a quick search for alternate reversible pathology is essential to timely management and avoid unnecessary cardiac intervention.
