Sick Sinus Syndrome
Reviewed by the medical team of El Doctor Editorial policy
When the heart beats too slowly or irregularly without an obvious cause, sick sinus syndrome could be involved. It is a disorder of the sinus node, the structure that naturally regulates heart rhythm, and it encompasses various disorders of that rhythm.
Which specialist treats it? The cardiologist is the professional who evaluates these rhythm disorders, and the cardiovascular and thoracic surgeon may take part when the case requires it.
Common symptoms: fatigue, dizziness, palpitations, a feeling of faintness, and difficulty performing exertion.
When to seek care? If you notice irregular heartbeats, dizziness, or fainting, the prudent step is to discuss it with a professional, who can assess the function of the heart and address your concerns.
