Abstract

This article presents a clinical case of a patient who developed a Brugada-like electrocardiogram (ECG) pattern as a delayed complication after recovering from COVID-19. Brugada syndrome is a rare genetic disorder characterized by abnormal changes on the ECG and an increased risk of sudden cardiac death. Although the association between COVID-19 and cardiovascular complications is well-studied, the development of Brugada-like ECG changes in COVID-19 patients is a rare occurrence. This clinical case emphasizes the importance of early detection and appropriate management of cardiac complications in patients recovering from COVID-19, including the development of Brugada-like ECG changes. Consideration of these factors is crucial for optimal patient care and reducing the risk of sudden cardiac death.
