Doctor Pedro Brugada, responsible of the "http://www.healthcarebelgium.com/index.php?id=167" Heart Rhytm Management Centre of the Universitair Ziekenhuis in Brussels (Belgium), has visited the researchers and cardiologists at the Vall d’Hebron University Hospital to teach the session called ‘Past, present and future of the Brugada syndrome’.The physician, born in Banyoles (Girona), discovered in 1992 an alteration in the electrocardiogram of patients that had had a sudden death. Sometime later, thanks to the help of his brothers, also prestigious cardiologists, they named this particular lethal cardiac arrhythmia as ‘Brugada syndrome’.About this syndrome he spoke in the session organized by the Cardiology Service and in a "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r5ydg2UxAJs&index=1&list=UUxKP-o-l2AJM6Vt2W5e3vEw" short video where he explains why it isn’t an illness and what its prevalence is. During the visit at the center, Dr. Brugada also had time to discuss with the cardiologists at Vall d’Hebron some of the cases of patients admitted in the hospital.
