PY - 2022 T2 - Current Medical Diagnosis & Treatment 2022 AB - ESSENTIALS OF DIAGNOSISWide variation in sinus rate is common in young, healthy individuals and generally not pathologic.Symptomatic bradycardia may require permanent pacemaker implantation, especially in the elderly or patients with underlying heart disease.Sinus tachycardia is usually secondary to another underlying process (ie, fever, pain, anemia, alcohol withdrawal).Sick sinus syndrome manifests as sinus bradycardia, pauses, or inadequate heart rate response to physiologic demands (chronotropic incompetence).
