Sick sinus syndrome SSS also called sinus node dysfunction
(SND), is an umbrella term for a group of abnormal heart rhythms caused by a malfunction of the sinus node, the heart's primary pacemaker.
Bradycardia-tachycardia syndrome is a variant of sick sinus syndrome in which slow arrhythmias and fast arrhythmias alternate.
2828
Bradycardia-tachycardia syndrome
•All result in bradycardia
•Sinus bradycardia (rate of ~43 bpm) with a sinus pause
•Often result of tachy-brady syndrome: where a burst of atrial tachycardia (such as afib) is then followed by a long, symptomatic sinus pause/arrest, with no breakthrough junctional rhythm.
