With age, the sinus node loses its effectiveness, increasing the risk of sick sinus syndrome. Unfortunately, there is no way to counter this. However, patients can keep their hearts healthy by learning as much as possible about the condition, and also working closely with a physician to find the best treatment.

Patients can also make appropriate lifestyle changes to prevent complications brought about by sick sinus syndrome. These changes include eating a healthy diet, exercising, maintaining a healthy weight, keeping cholesterol and blood pressure under control, quitting smoking, and avoiding stress.
