Summary
Syndrome of early repolarisation is a relatively not common electrocardiographic pattern with typically elevated J wave in most of the cases in lead II, III, aVF and V3–V6. There is increasing evidence that the early repolarisation might be associated with increased risk of sudden cardiac death in otherwise healthy individuals. Early repolarisation ECG pattern in inferolateral leads is associated with sudden death in younger otherwise healthy individuals. Identification of this risky group based on pure ECG criteria is still challenging but it must be considered in individuals with family history of sudden cardiac death or cardiac arrest.
Key words:
early repolarisation-idiopathic ventricular fibrillation-sudden cardiac death.
