There have been studies published regarding the association between developing Brugada syndrome after an acute COVID-19 infection. In this case, we present a patient who presented with a syncopal episode and subsequently found to have Type I Brugada pattern on electrocardiogram. The patient underwent placement of a single chamber defibrillator. Genetic analysis demonstrated SCN5A variant which is associated with cardiac conditions including Brugada syndrome.
