Abstract:
Brugada syndrome and related forms of ion channelopathies, including ventricular asynchrony of contraction, originate in the region near the His bundle or para-Hisian regions of the heart. Manifestations of Brugada syndrome can be corrected by delivering endocardial electrical stimulation coincident to the activation wave front propagated from the atrioventricular (AV) nodeearly enough to compensate for the conduction problems that start in those region. The stimulation can include waveforms of the same polarity delivered to a site within the region near the His bundle or para-Hisian regions of the heart associated with a low cardiac electrical asynchrony level or can include at least two single-phased superimposed waveforms of opposite polarity delivered through a pair of pacing electrodes relative to a reference electrode, which can be delivered to any site within the region near the His bundle or para-Hisian regions of the heart.

Claim (Index 18):
A system for treating Brugada syndrome using cardiac electrical asynchrony data, comprising:\n a processing device configured to determine, for a plurality of potential pacing sites in at least one of a region near the His bundle and a para-Hisian region of a patient's heart, a level of cardiac electrical asynchrony associated with an application of therapeutic electrical stimulation to each of the plurality pacing sites; and a pulse generator electrically coupled to one of an endocardial lead and a physiological catheter and configured to deliver electrical therapeutic stimulation under programmed parametric control through an at least one pacing electrode, the at least one pacing electrode comprised on one of the endocardial lead and the physiological catheter, substantially coincidentally to propagation of an activation wave front proceeding from the atrioventricular node of the patient's heart when the at least one pacing electrode is positioned at the potential pacing site associated with the lowest one of the levels of the cardiac electrical asynchrony.
