âPrimary care physicians fall into [one of two categories]: family medicine doctors and internal medicine doctors,â explains Saju Mathew, M.D., a primary care physician at Piedmont Physicians Group. âWeâre all primary care physicians, but the biggest difference is internal medicine doctors are like adult pediatricians.â.
Types of Arrhythmia. There are many types of arrhythmias. Arrhythmias are identified by where they occur in the heart (in the atria or ventricles) and by what happens to the heart's rhythm when they occur. Arrhythmias that begin in the atria are called atrial or supraventricular (above the ventricles) arrhythmias. Ventricular arrhythmias begin in the ventricles. In general, ventricular arrhythmias caused by heart disease are the most serious. Premature beats are the most common type of heart arrhythmia.
The disorders that characterize SSS include: 1  sinus bradycardia: the heart beats very slowly, less than 60 beats per minute.  sinus arrest or sinus pause: the sinus node temporarily stops working or pauses, causing a change in the heartâs beating.
