A formal echocardiogram was completed the next day and again showed a normal ejection fraction without any focal wall motion abnormalities to suggest CAD. Our patient had a Brugada Type 1 pattern elicited by an elevated core temperature, which is also a documented phenomenon. There is no further workup at this time.

He had significant history of CAD with CABG x5, and repeat CABG x 2 as well as a subsequent PCI of the graft to the RCA (twice) and of the graft to the Diagonal. At cath, he immediately had incessant Torsades de Pointes requiring defibrillation 7 times and requiring placement of a transvenous pacer for overdrive pacing at a rate of 80.

The note documents that the first view of the LCX showed 99%, TIMI 2 flow, but then (before intervention) was seen to fully occlude in real time (100%, TIMI 0). Soon after the witnessed occlusion, the patient suffered ventricular fibrillation arrest, from which he was immediately resuscitated with 1 defibrillation. Pre-intervention.
