It is a syndrome most prevalent in Southeast Asians and is found 36 times more commonly in Asians than in Hispanics.\n\nCase Report: We report and discuss a case of a 68-year-old Hispanic male who presented with clinical and electrocardiogram abnormalities consistent with Brugada syndrome.\n\nDiscussion: The patient\u2019s age and ethnicity represents an atypical presentation of this rare syndrome and the lack of reported studies in the literature pertaining to these demographics reflect this.\n\nConclusion: Further studies and characterizations are necessary as manifestations continue to be unearthed. As such, Brugada Syndrome should be considered in the differential diagnosis for a myriad of patient populations.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.5811\/cpcem.2020.1.44675","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,5,5]],"date-time":"2020-05-05T18:23:34Z","timestamp":1588703014000},"page":"251-254","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Brugada Syndrome: Presentation and Management of the Atypical Patient in the Emergent Setting"],"prefix":"10.5811","volume":"4","author":[{"given":"Alexander","family":"Nguyen","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Henry Ford Wyandotte Hospital, Department of Emergency Medicine, Wyandotte, Michigan; Burrell College of Osteopathic Medicine at New Mexico State University, Department of Emergency Medicine, Las Cruces, New Mexico"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Mario","family":"Flores","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Burrell College of Osteopathic Medicine at New Mexico State University, Department of Emergency Medicine, Las Cruces, New Mexico"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Vilmogil","family":"Tano","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Burrell College of Osteopathic Medicine at New Mexico State University, Department of Emergency Medicine, Las Cruces, New Mexico"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"29705","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,4,14]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref0","unstructured":"Vutthikraivit W, Rattanawong P, Putthapiban P, et al.
