Type 1 Brugada pattern ECG may be unmasked by ST-segment augmentation during recovery from exercise. Exercise stress test may play a role in the diagnosis of Brugada syndrome when suspicion for Brugada syndrome remains after a negative procainamide challenge test or if the patient has exercise-related symptoms. COVID-19 can unmask BrS and trigger a VF cardiac arrest.
