Right versus left atrial pacing in patients with sick sinus syndrome and paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (Riverleft study) [PDF]
_Background:_ The incidence of sick sinus syndrome will increase due to population ageing. Consequently, this will result in an increase in the number of pacemaker implantations.

Tbx18 and the generation of a biological pacemaker. Are we there yet? [PDF]
A group of approximately 10,000 cells in the sinoatrial node (SAN), which is located at the entry of the right superior caval vein into the right atrium, is responsible for regular heart beating under different physiological conditions [1]. While the SAN

Holter monitoring in patients with transient and focal ischemic attacks of the brain [PDF]
The results of Holter monitoring in 100 patients with transient and focal cerebral ischemia were studied retrospectively. Atrial fibrillation (AF) was found in five patients compared with two from a group of 100 age and sex-matched control patients. Four

Brugada syndrome presenting as atrial flutter with sick sinus syndrome
An incidentally diagnosed patient with Brugada syndrome was found to have atrial flutter on baseline electrocardiogram. He was DC (Direct current) cardioverted which revealed sick sinus syndrome.

Unexplained atrial myopathy and sick sinus syndrome in a young patient with atrial fibrillation [PDF]
A patient with atrial fibrillation and sick sinus syndrome and no other relevant medical history is referred for hybrid AF ablation. During endocardial mapping, there are extensive areas of low voltage throughout the left atrium. During follow up a lamin

Sick sinus syndrome (SSS) is a term used for a variety of cardiac arrhythmias, occurring predominantly in the elderly, that result from a senescent sinus node. Because the sinus node is the normal pacemaker of the heart, its dysfunction is a cause for concern.

Sinus automaticity and sinoatrial conduction in severe symptomatic sick sinus syndrome [PDF]
Electrophysiologic studies with recordings of sinus node electrograms were performed in 38 patients with severe symptomatic sick sinus syndrome. Thirty-two of the 38 patients had episodic tachyarrhythmias and 17 presented with syncope.

A review of the sick sinus syndrome (SSS) is presented stressing its multifaceted expressions, with slow and fast heart rates, syncopal and dizzy attacks, and rather vague nature early in its course. All ages are affected and the diagnosis must be considered if there is a modest degree of sinus bradycardia (SB), even if asymptomatic, as SB is less ...
