Rate control for tachycardias (e.g., AFib). #Electrophysiology#MedEd #Cardiology#ECG | Abdallah Othman | Facebook

🎯 Sick Sinus Syndrome,decoded. 💡 The sinus node fails, causing: ✅Too slow (Bradycardia, Pauses) ✅Too fast (Tachycardia, AFib, MAT) ✅And often, both in alternation (Tachy-Brady) The fix? (Pacemaker) for the slow, and meds/ablation for the fast. Save this essential guide for your next ECG rotation! #MedEd #VisualLearning #Cardiology #HeartRhythm #SickSinusSyndrome #ECG #Clinical | Abdallah Othman

Sick Sinus Syndrome (SSS), or sinus node dysfunction (SND) ⚡This ECG visual highlights SSS-related rhythms: Sinus Bradycardia/Tachycardia, Sinus Pauses/Arrest, Exit Blocks, AFib, MAT, Junctional Escape, and more (e.g., AVNRT, AVRT if accessory pathways exist, ectopic atrial rhythms). Tachy-Brady Syndrome is common, with tachyarrhythmias predominating in most patients. Manage with pacemakers for bradyarrhythmias & rate control for tachycardias. #Cardiology #Electrophysiology #SickSinusSyndrome #E
