Brief Summary: Background Brugada Syndrome is an inherited channelopathy associated with risk of ventricular fibrillation and sudden cardiac death in a structurally normal heart The diagnosis is based on the characteristic electrocardiographic pattern coved type STsegment elevation 2mm followed by a negative T-wave in one or more of the right precordial leads V1 to V2 noted spontaneously or upon administration of a sodiumchannel blocker such as Ajmaline

The majority of adults screened for Brugada Syndrome undergo the Ajmaline provocation-test awake Ajmaline is therefore injected continuously with incremental steps through an intravenous placed catheter according to cardiological protocols In a subpopulation of anxious adults or when another electrophysiological procedure is required at the same time sedation or general anaesthesia is provided Similarly in the paediatric population it is common practice to perform the challenge test under sedation

Based on the sodium channel blocking properties of propofol it is not unthinkable that anaesthetic agents might interact with the pharmacodynamic or pharmacokinetic effects of Ajmaline on the myocardial sodium channels Existence of such interaction would implicate altered diagnostic value of the Ajmaline-provocation-test for patients that undergo the challenge under general anaesthesia

Objective The goal of this study is to evaluate if the Ajmaline-provocation-test results in altered electrocardiographic effects when performed under general anaesthesia with propofol

Study-design A prospective observational study

Study population Patients are eligible for inclusion if they have been diagnosed with Brugada Syndrome are American Society of Anaesthesiologists ASA 2 - 4 older than 18 years and are scheduled for epicardial ablation Exclusion criteria are known allergy for propofol a body mass index BMI above 35 for female and 42 for male patients obstetric patients critical illness conditions that exclude continuous propofol infusion due to higher risk for propofol infusion syndrome PRIS such as mitochondrial disease fatty acid oxidation disorder co-enzyme Q deficiency and any other condition that renders the patient unfit for elective surgery

Intervention This study is prospective observational

Main study parametersendpoints The primary endpoints are changes in the ST- Jp- QRS- Tp-e-segments and Tp-eQT -ratio changes during steady-state anaesthesia The secondary endpoint is the occurrence of de novo arrhythmias

Nature and extent of the burden and risks associated with participation This is an observational study therefore the risks associated are no other than those associated with the intervention itself No additional blood-samples tests or consults are necessitated during participation therefore no extra burden is associated
